Listen to some marvelous CDs. My latest choices are very different from each other.
First, Crooked Still’s Still Crooked is a terrific new disc. They are the only bluegrass/newgrass group I know of that has a cello that plays wailing blues like a fiddle. This occasionally doubles the 5-string fiddle and always complements the other stringed instruments, string bass and banjo. The singer, Aoife O’Donovan, has a lighter than air voice, and it is impossible for me to resist humming along with her. It’s a great pick-me-up in the winter.
Next, in a completely different realm is The Eroica Trio, The Best of Eroica Trio. I love this trio (piano, violin, and cello), and this is a wonderful introduction to them if you’ve never heard them. They play everything from baroque to tango on this disc. The melody of the last piece on this CD is so hauntingly beautiful (Bachianas Brasileiras No. 5) that I usually hit the repeat button on my player a time or two just to drink it in more deeply.  This is a must-have if you’re a classical music fan or you want to get started in the world of classical music.
If you’re new to classical music, here’s a helpful hint: Always read the liner notes of a classical CD. They help you to understand and appreciate the music much more.
