I played the famous tune of the Gladiator soundtrack (by Hans Zimmer) in this incredible space with an amazing acoustics.

Did you know that in 1970, when the very first Earth Day was ‘celebrated’, we already knew that our system was not sustainable?! Things need to change - consumption system, politics, big corporations, and our individual behaviors. Perhaps our individual efforts won’t change the world, but for sure the world won’t change without these personal improvements!! You’re hearing 8 cello tracks in my cover of Earth Song by Michael Jackson: “What about sunrise? What about rain? What about all the things that you said was yours and mine? Did you ever stop to notice All the blood we've shed before? Did you ever stop to notice This crying Earth, these weeping shores?”

You all know the song "The Girl from Ipanema", but do you know the story behind this song? Do you know what makes it so special?? In this video, you will learn fun facts about how the song was written, and with the help of a little music analysis, you will understand its beauty and mysteries. www.cellowings.com

I wish you a happy Valentine's day with this song by Nat King Cole, that I arranged for 2 cello tracks! Which version did you know first, Cole's or Sinatra's?

I improvised this little tune on a frozen cello, with my frozen fingers, inspired by the cold and fluffy atmosphere of the snowy landscape. More cello songs on Instagram: @madeleine.cello

As a thick and soft layer of snow was shining in the sun outside, I took out my cello to play Bach's Prelude from the 1st cello suite!
