I'm very grateful that Professor Elliott recommended this piece to me; this was a piece that allowed me to discover just how much I had grown as both a cellist and a musician. Both technically and musically, it was probably the most challenging piece on the program. I had many people tell me that this was their favorite piece on my program that night, and that I was able to present it effectively was a big personal victory. Besides that, I'm glad I was able to introduce them to such a great piece of music. I hope you all enjoy it as well!

Probably the most difficult piece on the program is the Air for Cello and Piano by Aaron Jay Kernis. But it's also one of the most beautiful pieces for cello and piano that I've ever heard. It was originally written for violin and string orchestra, but it's since been transcribed for many different combinations of instruments. The version I'm sharing today is a transcription for cello and string orchestra, and it's performed by one of my favorite cellists, Truls Mork. I hope you enjoy!

I've spent a lot of time up here with my iPod on shuffle as I read, and I've come across plenty of old favorites, along with some wonderful pieces of music that I've never heard before. This is one of the latter; a piece called Musica Celestis by contemporary composer Aaron Jay Kernis. A brief scan of the internet reveals that it is a kind of modern-day Barber's Adagio. Originally a movement of a string quartet, it was arranged by the composer for string orchestra. I hope you enjoy!

But this simple piece... Musica Celestis by Aaron Jay Kernis was what I took home with me to turn over in my head. It matched my mood and my feelings towards those I was there to see and support. I guess it's the smallest example of the lesson that you should always be open to new things and allow yourself to be surprised.
