ecosse48 This album is without doubt; A Masterclass.
One, from hearing the very first note, was captivated. Instinctively I knew, I felt, that this going to be something special, and special indeed is; The Naked Cello.
I cannot recommend it too highly. 5 Star plus
From the first moment you are cocooned in the deep sonorous tones of the cello, as you luxuriate and wrap yourself up in this wonderful opening track; The Heart Afraid Of Breaking, My gosh, even writing this, it gives me goosebumps Favorite track: The Heart Afraid of Breaking.

elsen price This is an incredible initiative by the performer, and a very diverse and multi-disciplinary set of repetoire. Congratulations on a fantastic recording.
