Songs and melodies of the steppe, including the beloved song for mother, “Ана туралы ән”.
A cello that travels
NomadCello brings the warmth of the cello to places people gather, moving freely between classical repertoire, folk melodies and modern songs.
Playing both a traditional acoustic cello and a sleek electric instrument, NomadCello shapes each performance to the room: unhurried and elegant at afternoon tea, luminous at a wedding ceremony, cinematic on the concert stage.
A cellist for more than 25 years, NomadCello holds a Master of Music from the Chicago College of Performing Arts.
With 50 to 75 events every year, NomadCello has now performed at more than 1,000 events, from intimate ceremonies to grand hotel ballrooms.
More of the story is coming soon.
