Portland Cello Project | Denmark
There's some beautiful stringed melodies to listen to here!
Thank you UofMan, greco and tawse!  tawse??? When I listened to the number you found by Ben E King (with the London Symphony) and read your post about hearing the rendition the Atlanta Symphony performed recently (your outting with your friend), the first thing that came to my mind was I thought about your descripton of the number being 'eery' - I might know what you're talking about because I heard a rendition of an eery version of the Ben E King song as performed by a symphony back home in Idaho, years ago. I hadn't thought about that concert in years - but your post conjured the memory, so thanks!!! Another member in our community, posted the music video I am leaving here tonight, in the main forum thread for music "What are you listening to?" last summer(2010) - or was it in the fall??? The group is called: The Portland Cello Project. They perform "Denmark" (ft. Gideon Freudmann). The person who posted it had no idea how deeply that video touched my heart because ... well, because of a dear friend of mine in Berlin, Germany loved Danish culture, spent significant time in Denmark (grew up there, if I remember correctly or their familial origins begin in Denmark, something like that). Long story short  : We had this ongoing conversation about particular things and that particular part of our conversation led to me posting a video clip from Sesame Street's 'absent minded professor' who built the 'six dollar man' (a spoof on the Six Million Dollar Man, a tv show back in the day) - who immediately blew up into a million peices (all collected from the trash can, garbage can) after the scientist was trying to proove to kids how his experiment was going to 'work.' HAHAHAHAHA!!!! The clip featuring his concocted 'six dollar man' resembles the wooden puppet in The Portland Cello Project video below and furthermore, there's a little red lobster (on a piece of paper, and artistic representation of a lobster) sitting on the tank of the toilet. It's somewhere near the beginning of the video. Anyway... how seredipitous for them to have posted that video, and how the contents of that video are nearly perfect or fit perfectly (I should say) the extended conversation I had with my friend in Berlin, years ago (2006?) *Enjoy* ps/ the caveat to this story is that the story-within-the-story between me and my TG butch friend in Berlin was a spin-off to my argument about Bob Dollar - the protagonist in the Annie Proulx story, That Old Ace in the Hole.
