Artist of the month

This month's privilege goes to cellist Wendy Sutter. Sutter teaches at Colombia and has a number of albums under her belt, but she is best known for ravaging her strings to works Philip Glass wrote for her. They date and have been touring the country for the past year. Her performance at LACMA earlier this month gave me chills; she did things to that cello I have never seen done with any string, and she even had little skulls and angels on her beast (original Amati).
