had my middle school strings teacher not been a total freak, i probably would have gone with cello over the oboe. the cello--i mean, it can really do no wrong. like here, dear mstislav rostropovich (we seem to be on a mother russia kick with this and thelms' post!) starting at 4:00. this song just makes me weep with joy and sadness. it is so beautiful.

You are exactly right about the cello. I feel that way, too, about the french horn.
ahhh! the french horn--don't even get me started on the ecstasy of the french horn!
