Greetings!
By the time you hear this, I'll have already returned from my 2 week jaunt to the wilds of Alaska, but I couldn't resist the episode's title focused on compositions for cello and derived, NOT from the 2012 film I've never seen, OR Phil Collins' second solo album from 1982, BUT the 1930 classic Marx Brothers film, "Animal Crackers"!
That being said, I digress. Enjoy a panoply of cello stylings from the finest cellists and composers of our times.
Joel
