David Darling - Cello Blue

"David Darling, the 'Lord of Largo,' returns with another album of slow-motion melodies and cello textures..."

- John Diliberto

Whether your impression of Grammy Award winning cellist David Darling dates from his early days with the Paul Winter Consort, his incomparably deep recordings for ECM, or his much-loved 1993 Hearts of Space album Eight String Religion--none are more warmly lyrical, contemplative, and soulful than the music that flows so generously from his new CD, CELLO BLUE. Darling's personal string orchestra of multiple cellos with piano and keyboards has never sounded more beautiful.

Grammy Nomination for the Best New Age Album of 2002.
