Today's Video Share: "Love Me Tender" by Rebecca Gilmore

"Aura Lee", Cellist, Rebecca Gilmore, imagined Valentine's Day 2021 as needing a unique touch of outreach and warmth. She created this video with Nathan Ward, driven by the necessity of live music. Struck by the numbers of musicians and audience that miss our symphony orchestras, chamber music concerts at Carnegie Hall , opera halls and big band theaters, all cities big and small are in need of a sweet moment and time to reflect this Valentine's Day.

Rebecca Gilmore is Assistant Principal Cellist with the Virginia Symphony Orchestra which is based in southern Virginia, also referred to as "Hampton Roads". She continues to grow her own musical web with impromptu performances locally and on her new YouTube channel, Rebecca Gilmore Cello, virtual cello lessons studio, Ambrosia Quartet, "Yogawithcello" and with collaborators.
