I'm a cellist.
that big woman-shaped instrument that you take between your thighs and embrace it while stroking it with another piece of wood.
my instrument was made in 1828 and gives me a lot of pleasure (ok, slowly it starts to be too awkward) but demands a lot as well.
when I play I feel the resonance of the corpus with my entire body.
music is movement. music is energy.
it's a way to connect to others. to impress, to express. to upset, to soothe.
"..it makes the people come together"
