For me there is nothing more sensual that listening to an exquisite cello piece.
There is a movie "Hillary and Jackie” with that superb English actress that is Emily Watson.
In this movie she plays the real story of the world wide famous cellist Jacqueline Dupre who in her mid 20's and at the peak of her carrier died of Multiple Sclerosis.
The most touching scene of the movie shows her at the moment in which she realizes she can’t control anymore the connection between her brain and her fingers and what she still believes is beautiful music is instead perceived by the audience as an awful series of screeching sounds.
I think the music of a cello is something absolutely perfect.
Powerful, deep, sensual
It truly haunts your soul and drags you inside its world. It doesn’t give you peace until is over.
You will never know if the last note is really the last one. It can come back and grab you again. The deepest note creates vibrations in the stomach.
It’s like an orgasmic vibrating music.
An orgasm exploding at the same time from the brain and the heart.
I do like piano, acoustic guitar and violin too but no instrument like the cello has been able to make me cry.
Right now I am writing and I am listening to Bach ..... I had to pause several times to simply let in the beauty of the cello.......
Just listen........this video shows the great Pablo Casals playing Bach, Suite # 1....
