ON THE BACK BURNER

Guess what I just got to play with. A blue cello !! My violin teacher lent me a vibrant blue cello. If it isn't easy being green, as an old song goes, it has to be hard being a blue cello. Can anyone take you seriously. Blue. Huge. Cello. I love it. I am looking on line for free instruction and music for it. I run the bow over the strings and I absolutely love the sound, especially from the "C" string. At least I think I remember that it is a "C .It's that low,low sound that I hear in my gut. It is such a soothing, mellow sound. The violin is like lightening, the cello, more like thunder. I had some friend over in the evening and everyone wanted to play with the cello. Everyone likes those low,rumbling sounds. It differently has a presence in our condo. It is so big that I actually may have to rent an apartment for it. It would be hard to misplace. First I put it in our bedroom. But Cricket was suspicious of it. Then I moved it to the living room. It seemed uncomfortable there. Now I have it sleeping on 3 pillows in our guest room. This is not an instrument that you can overlook in a room. If anyone who knows me,lives nearby, and use to play the cello...please drop in and play with my new blue friend. And lend me some music.
