It's just another reminder that we never know how much the little things can matter to the people we meet.
Great video. I'm so excited that your daughter took this first big step!
Beautiful!
A lovely cello piece and creativity in doing it! I like Yo-Yo Ma on cello and need to get out the CD I have of him playing Bach.
Nice to hear of your daughter's excitement.
Cello Rondo!! That is the coolest thing ever and totally hillarious. I hope your daughter does indeed play exactly like that.
Yay! Hope she keeps having fun with it.
It's fun to have seen this process from the very beginning . . . the prospect of the lessons, the discouragement, the letter, the motivation, the first lesson! Can't wait to hear how it continues.
Love the rondo.
What a wonderful cello video. That man has so many shirts!
(I'm still giggling about you finding my pencil in the haggis.)
I'm so glad she enjoyed the first lesson.
That looks like my cat--two minutes into the video, but I've never noticed the halo before.
Craver, I'm allergic to cats, but I liked the halo too.
Beautiful -the poem, the letter and the music. Made my day!
My husband wants to know:how many cellos would it take to perform "A Cello Rondo" live?
So are you planning on joining your daughter in cello lessons? After watching that video, I'm considering them!!
Mark & Craver...I have a halo like that.
And this is why, Inihtar, I won't be playing the cello. See, the one with the halo gets to listen.
Beautiful.
How's it going?
