The cello is arguably one of the two or three most beautiful instruments in the orchestra. And here are 24 of them playing some of the prettiest Latin melodies written. I bought a copy of the CD for myself. Now I'm buying a copy for my brother, a retired professor of music and another cello fan.

First heard a selection from this album on Internet radio! Never initially aware of this CD, but now enjoy it over and over! Recommended for any lover of the easy-listening genre, especially of orchestra arrangements. If you're aware of the 50-Guitars (Tommy Garrett), this takes a similar approach with depth of sound using cellos. Guaranteed you'll love it!!!
