| We are in the process of updating this site to include information about the new Von Cello CD: Von Cello Rules! In the meantime, you can hear audio clips from the CD here: http://www.voncello.com/clips2.htm This page has audio clips of Von Cello's CD, Breaking the Sound Barriers. You can also find full versions of some of the songs and much more on his site at mp3.com, including: Von Cello's creation of a new style of cello playing in 1975,his guitar based songs, jams, cuts from classical and rock groups of which he was a member, and other compositions! To hear these cuts that represent a "History of Von Cello" click on this link: http://www.mp3.com/voncello You can also buy several Von Cello CDs on that site (in various categories, such as innovations, classical playing, singer-songwriter, crazy funny stuff). Keep in mind though that those CDs, while very interesting, are not of the sound quality of Breaking The Sound Barriers. Below are samples from each song on Breaking The Sound Barriers. While listening, please go to the CD Info page to find the liner notes from the CD, and an extended explanation of each piece. (There are many things going on under the surface of this music.) Click on this link: CD Info This CD tells a story: the story of a cellist going from classical to pop. It is in many ways a concept album, a journey, and is most enjoyably experienced when listened to straight through. These samples give an idea of each song, however in many songs the most interesting part is the bridge or the coda at the end. Other songs are interesting in the way they develop. Also Real Audio clips do not match the sound of my CD, which was mastered in 24 bit sound at New York's top mastering house, Sterling Sound (the same studio used by Paul Simon, Metalica, Cat Stevens and others). The better your stereo system, the better it sounds! So remember: if the clips interest you, you'll love the CD! You can purchase it by clicking on this link: Store
