Cello Journey #29, Thais Meditation (Version 2)
Friday, 6 June, 2008

I thought I would put up two versions of the same episode. It is difficult to pick one sometimes. There may be a different feeling in each. Let me know what you think.In this episode we play the Meditation from the Opera Thais by Jules Massenet.The Thais comes from an interlude towards the end of the opera. It is usually played on the violin. It is marked Andante Religioso and there is a reflective mood throughout.This piece is special to me because, over the years, my mother has played it in church on the violin. I wanted to do a good job with it. We hope you enjoy it.For feedback you can e-mail cellojourney@gmail.com or visit the website cellojourney.com
