30 Days of Music Meme, Day 27: A song you wish you could play

I've always regretted not sticking with the cello. Unfortunately, in 5th grade orchestra, rehearsal was in the half hour before school started, and my mom had to put up with enough bitching and moaning to get me to school at 8am, let alone to have me lugging a cello to school at 7:30, so she let me talk her into quitting. Wish she'd stuck to her

Even though I was always much more of an ensemble player than a soloist, I bet that at one point when I was good at cello I might have been able to learn this. It's beautiful. DuPre was always one of my favorite cellist soloists, along with Stjepan Hauser, who played the Kol Nidrei in my post on the cello.
