Most achingly-beautiful music

I had to revive this again - Samual Barber Adagio

Also its the main theme to the movie Platoon. Just beatiful

I picked the moniker "Cello" due to my love of the instrument. Unfortunately, I don't play. I have dabbled in several instruments, but never the Cello or Violin.
.
I also have a great passion for the Violin and Viola as well.

Anne is one of my favorite Violinists. I have quite a few of David Oistrak's LPs. I also love and collect Henryk Szeryng's LP's. Some of his recordings are just incredible.

1) Richard Strauss, Last Four Songs (Vier letzte Lieder) sung by Lucia Popp, on Sony with Thomas conducting LSO: play it late at night, and if you cannot get that recording don't bother. 2) Nathan Milstein's Bach Solo Sonatas/Partitas. 3)Quan Zhou and Edmund Battersby playing Romance in F minor, op. 11, on Dvorak: Music for Violin and Piano, Vol 1, on Naxos. 4) Josef Suk and Julius Katchen (and only them) playing the Brahms Violin Sonatas.
