Lyrics:
My mind is a warrior,
My heart is a foreigner,
My eyes are the colour of red like the sunset,
Never keep it bottled up,
Left to the hands of the coroner,
Be a true heart not a follower,
We're not done yet now,
I see it in your movements and I,
If we can ever do this right,
I'm never gonna let you down,
Oh I'll never let you down,
Now keep it on the down low
And I'll keep you around so I'll know,
That I'll never let you down,
I'll never let you down.
Your strumming on my heart strings like you were a grade 8 but I never felt this way,
I'll pick your feet up off of the ground and never ever let you down,
Your strumming on my heart strings like you were a grade 8 but I never felt this way,
I'll pick your feet up off of the ground and never ever let you down,
Your eyes are a river filler,
This drink is a liver killer,
Your chest is a pillow for my weary head to lay to rest again,
Your body is my ballpoint pen
And your mind is my new best friend,
Your eyes are my mirror to take me to the edge again,
Now I see it in your movements,
And I, if we should ever do this right,
I'm never gonna let you down,
Oh I'll never let you down,
We'll keep it on the down low
And I'll keep you around so I'll know,
That I'll never let you down,
I'll never let you down,
Your strumming on my heart strings like you were a grade 8 but I never felt this way,
I'll pick your feet up off of the ground and never ever let you down,
Your strumming on my heart strings like you were a grade 8 but I never felt this way,
I'll pick your feet up off of the ground and never ever let you down,
Hold my heart to stop me bleeding now, now, now, and I'll never let you down x4
Cus your strumming on my heart strings like you were a grade 8 but I never felt this way,
I'll pick your feet up off of the ground and never ever let you down,
Your strumming on my heart strings like you were a grade 8 but I never felt this way,
I'll pick your feet up off of the ground and never ever let you down

That's just me again, playing this. I really like it so I decided to try and record it. Yeah, sorry about the quality or something, it was shot with my iPod. =)
I hope you enjoy it at least a small bit as much as I enjoyed playing this. =)

Baroque pitch tuning. Strings CGDA according to the oldest manuscript by Kellner (see also my website for more explanation: http://www.georgcello.com/sheetmusic.htm).
The 6 cello suites are today part of my program of the CELLO CONCERTS at Jenolan Caves, NSW Australia, the longest series of cello concerts in history with more than 150 cello concerts in over 13 years. In 1993 I did my first recording of all the 6 cello suites.
Cello Concerts are held regularly every 3d Sat of the month 4pm. Bookings (AU) 02 6359 3911 (or ticketmaster: http://www.ticketmaster.com.au/Jenola...
For program details visit: http://www.georgcello.com/cello.htm
During the year the complete 6 Suites for cello solos can be viewed on this Youtube channel,
Suite 1 in G major BWV 1007, Suite 2 in D minor BWV 1008, Suite 3 in C major BWV 1009, Suite 4 in Eb major BWV 1010, Suite 5 in C minor BWV 1011 and Suite 6 in D major BWV 1012 with the following movements:
Preludes, Allemandes, Courantes, Sarabande, Bourrees, Menuets, Gavottes & Gigues.
To the VIBRATO: The composer / music theorist Geminiani wrote in 1752: 'vibrato ....when it is made on short notes, it only contributes to make their sound more agreeable and for this reason it should be made use of as often as possible'. This is very interesting since the popular Baroque fashion of today avoids vibrato. I think this fashion has been created by "new Roamantics". In the Romantic period vibrato was hardly used in Germany, Austria and England. The famous violinist Joachim, to whom Brahms dedicated his violin concerto, hardly used vibrato. Only Kreisler introduced it in the 1920s.
To the part of the bow used: Since the reconstruction of the bow by Tourte c 1800 we can apply on the nut/frog a weight of 5-10kg, whereas in the middle and upper third the limit is c 700g .
The weight of 700 g is slightly above the limit we can apply with a Baroque bow in all parts, due to the low tension of hair. Therefore Baroque music should be played in the middle to upper third of the bow.
In this recording I play wound nylon strings, in tension close to the gut strings they used."
If you are a string player you will find this article interesting: "An analysis of bow technique" dedicated to all students in the world who wish to improve their sound. (click here on: http://www.georgcello.com/bow.htm )
Apart from giving concerts, taking photos, composing, writing articles and poetry and editing my website, I teach cello and Classical guitar in Katoomba / Blue Mountains.
