My New Cello Project

I've been listening to The 99 Most Essential Cello Masterpieces to become familiar with cello pieces because I started playing the cello this year (my first instrument!). And I thought, "what better way to learn about each piece than to do a little research on each one and post a blog of what I've learned!"

I plan on listening to each piece for a few days, and then posting any relevant information regarding the piece (i.e. composer, history, etc.) and some of my thoughts on each masterpiece. 

Please keep in mind: I'm doing this for FUN! :)

I'll try to post accurate information, but please don't use any information on my blog. I'll try to remember to post any resources that I use at the end of my blog post - reference those instead.

Also, I'll be posting my thoughts and interpretations, and since I'm a complete newb beginner... I'm sure a lot of my interpretations will be "incorrect." This project is to get "familiar" with these pieces, so I'm sure I'll be revisiting each piece in more depth and detail once I start learning to play them, which will be much later in my cello playing future!

Therefore, please feel free to leave any feedback or your interpretation of the piece. It's a learning experience for me! :)

In addition, since I cannot post the songs from the CD (I'm sure there's a way, but I don't know how), I'll post other YouTube videos of cellists playing each piece.
