This is my all time favourite version of this song, I still come back to it. The recording right hear is the first time I felt like I was floating in a piece of music. I know the recording quality is questionable but it’s my favourite and I would pay good money to be in the theatre to see this moment live. Ugh. It just hits my soul.
Simply love it! I usually love this song, but this made me cry! How can you put so many feelings ins one single live performance? It's just awesome! Thanks for sharing this beautiful moments with us!
Qué delicia de sonido!,los templos católicos tienen un eco tan especial para el sonido de los cellos que simplemente impacta el corazón. What delicacy of sound!,all the catholic temples have an echo so special for the sound of cellos that simply impact any heart. Ist fuhlst in meine hertz !!
Perttu is absolutely amazing. He is why I have considered buying myself a student cello...and why I have talked myself out of it. Reality sets in. I could never master the instrument; as he obviously has.
It takes some work but the instrument is not so impossible. Farewell would take time to practice but still, it is not the hardest piece. What would be really hard for me is actually to "touch" this song on cello. It's like touching something divine. Something that should remain pure and perfect...
I have not long been practising playing the violin, even though I play basic but the glee I feel when I can play a piece of music is indescribable. I have my ambitions set on playing the cello and then the double bass. Seeing Apocalyptica all those years ago at the Brixton Academy in London, and listening to their beautiful collection of music, gave me the inspiration to pursue my dream; these amazing guys are pure magic.
Such a beautiful yet heart wrenching piece of music. I listened to this song the day of my nan's funeral. 12 years after her passing and this song still brings back happy yet painful memories.
The most common theory is that it was written for his ex-wife, Laura. So I would think those memories and feelings come back to the surface when he plays it.
Esta linda canción me hace recordar a una bella mujer a quien quise y siempre voy a querer, aunque ya no seamos amigas, ella ocupa un lugar muy especial. Always in my mind Beth Bustillo ❤
