Fallen



I fell in love last night... I fell head-over-heels in love with, in the words of Stephen Sondheim, "the most beautiful sound I ever heard." It was the music of the great cellist Steven Isserlis.

His fingers were magical and the sound was intoxicating; I was completely hypnotized- a woman possessed. He played Brahms and Strauss- if I close my eyes I can still feel the sounds vibrating in my chest. It was brilliant- I am in love with that cello.

If you have an inclination for classical music, or even if you don't, go immediately to his concerts and buy his CDs. He is perfection.
