A while ago, I attended an absolutely inspiring talk by Beste Sevindik, who told us about Nobu Koba and performed excerpts from her 1st violin sonata. I couldn’t resist trying it on my cello! The music is lyrical, somewhat Beethoven-esque and technically demanding. 🎻✨ #musicology #Asiastudies #cello

This is my recording of Haru no Umi (春の海, The Sea in Spring) by Michio Miyagi (宮城道雄), a beautiful piece originally composed in 1929. On our CDs, Selene and I play all tunes on our harps & flutes, but here, I’m playing it with my beloved Mrs Jacky Cello. 😊
