that one tune that does it to me

you know the one. it gives you shivers and sends tingles down your spine. for me, it tends to change from day to week to year, but right this instant, it is the 2nd movement of the rachmaninoff piano concerto no. 2. i love it.

when i hear it, i wish i could dance. like, really dance. i wish my body could somehow reflect the emotional palatte that exists within. playing cello, your body only does so much. you focus your being into the sound that you produce, not what you look like. you feel like swaying and dancing, but you can only do so much. maybe i'll get the chance someday. to understand. while i would never trade the joy and expression my cello gives me, i somehow wish that my body could be the cariage to such expression.
