Caroline Lavelle: A cello performance that casts a spell

www.ted.com Caroline Lavelle plays the cello like a sorceress casting a spell, occasionally hiding behind her wild mane of blond hair as she sings of pastoral themes. She performs "Farther than the Sun," backed by Thomas Dolby on keyboards.

In the recent Celtic Footprints European tour with Loreena McKennitt she not only sang harmony with Loreena but she played Irish Flute as well as the Cello.
Truly a talent in her own right.

And in 2023, on The Vist, Revisited Tour, she still is. Just saw Loreena at The Egg in Albany, NY. Loved it, great show, just wished it had percussion.

Simply brilliant musician and a warm,wonderful person.

I've seen her twice w/Loreena and she just stood out, I couldn't keep my eyes off of her. Her presence was magical, with the cello weaving in and out creating a tapestry of melodies embodied by that long flowing hair and beautiful smile that no one could resist. It was a perfect match with Loreena's vocal & harp. Special nights to remember forever. Jim Munroe

[@toddhick8123]

Just watched her, Loreena and Brian Hughes play their trio performance... No words to describe the talent on stage that night. Magical and amazing are not even good enough!!

[@maggivic]

Just got back this minute from seeing her, Loreena and Brian. Amazing concert. Caroline was mesmerizing!

[@GreenElfMom]

I am a great fan of Caroline Lavelle, so I really enjoyed this. I was first introduced to Lavelle's music via Loreena McKennitt, then became a fan of Secret Sky, and then finally began exploring Lavelle's solo albums. No matter with whom she collaborates, good music ensues!

[@sg72646]

Absolutely wonderful cellist who sometimes looks slightly ungainly in her performances but still love her to pieces

[@andybliss6538]

Never seen her before but, WOW!, I am enchanted and entranced. Reminds me a little of Judie Tzuke in her vocal sound.

[@bobboerjan7639]

Need to proceed with some feedback..... Very beautiful music... and very much appreciated how she promotes other musical talents! Bob

[@Oregu7]

That's what happens when a person dedicates their life to something. She really is unique.

[@rayl7225]

Her album Spirit was way ahead of its time. Still is.

[@jlpuentes]

Esto sí es música de verdad! ASOMBROSO!!!

[@bobboerjan7639]

That wonderfull connection between a Real Musician and 'IT-guys'.... Hear the feedback from an 'IT-guy': You're a wonderfull Lady, Singer and Musician... (mark the Capitals!). Beautiful voice and absolutely musical skill. No wonder Loreena wanted your skill in her Alhambra. Be sure You added much to this performance! A real Value Add!!!

The exquisite resonances of you cello and your exceptional talent have captivated this old heart. I have no music ability, I am pensioner. When there is love of the music. My. tears flow and my heart , spirit soars. I tell others. Music that touches the remote part of the heart, it is eternal, Thank you from my heart and spirit. We are impoverished without Music .And the true spirit sings for all of us.
