The Lure of the Cello

The cello's magical strings draw music forth,

Beckoning us into a chamber of orchestral enchantment

Through the language of musical sound.

As it continues on its journey through the theater of sound,

It crosses the Rubicon and drifts into our inner sanctum,

Bringing with it the poetry of sound

That encapsulates the bitter-sweet rhythm of life.

Through an enchanting orchestral overflow,

It moves the tides of the inner spirit

And brings nourishment to all the parched and tethered souls.

And the beautiful thing in all of it is…

All we have to do is listen.

This written piece on music was inspired by the magically performed classical pieces by Hauser,

Which brought to mind the beauty and power of the cello.

— Noel J. Nolan
