Thank you for your considered response Eric.
Sometimes you don't have, or can't remember the words to describe what you are looking for.
I have been exposed to Orchestral and some chamber music. The orchestral is largely what my parents listened to;most likely Mozart, Bethoven, Bach...
I have very much enjoyed some of the Symphonies I have listened to. I have also enjoyed some pieces for Cello.I really like the sound of the Cello.
At the moment I am listening to Folies, Les Voix Humains picked up based on the piece Les Folies d'Espagne, which I listened to on the radio on a most beautiful winter day while on my way to Axiom for an audition. Oh my. Such a rich sound!!
I had never heard of the Viola da Gambe until I listened to this piece.
I also picked up (from the library) Bach the Cello Suites, Steven Iserlis
