Cello web video site

Hello cello friends:

Long, long ago I went to music camp with an amazing cellist named Luke Pomorski. He's started a website where he posts performances of cello repertoire with piano. He plays with effortless grace and musicality. Better yet, the videos are shot so you can see both of his hands clearly. Check it out!

Lightly Row

Here are the words I use to Lightly Row. As always, please feel free to create new ones! This song works well as a handwashing song, since it takes about 20 seconds.

Lightly row, lightly row,
o'er the shining waves we go.
Gently gliding, gently gliding,
with the swiftly changing tide.

Let the winds and waters be
clear and calm and still to see.
Drift and float we drift and float
inside our little sailing boat.
