The classical side of Michael G. Ronstadt

[00:00:06] Speaker A: Hey, welcome to another mini episode of. [00:00:09] Speaker B: The Nathan's and Roncast. This is one of your hosts, Michael. [00:00:13] Speaker A: G. Ronstadt, and I'm happy to bring to you something that's a little bit. [00:00:17] Speaker B: Selfish and self promo oriented. [00:00:21] Speaker A: But if you know my music in the folk world and and you may not have heard the other sides of what I do, one of my backgrounds is that I have a master's degree. [00:00:31] Speaker C: In cello performance from the University of. [00:00:33] Speaker A: Cincinnati, and I went to the University of Arizona for my undergraduate. That being said, I am a classically trained musician and I do, like composing. [00:00:42] Speaker C: Works for solo cello, so I wanted to feature one of my own compositions that I just released officially on all the various platforms. It's called Echinopsis pakanoi. [00:00:53] Speaker A: I was trying to find the scientific name for a night blooming cirrus or maybe a grandfather cactus. I can't remember which cactus, but somehow I found the San Pedro Cactus and it sounded really cool, so I kept it. This piece of music you can get. [00:01:10] Speaker B: Physically from southweststrings.com that's located in Tucson, Arizona, but they sell internationally and you. [00:01:17] Speaker A: Can get the sheet music for solo cello. So if you know any young cello players or cello players who are professional. [00:01:24] Speaker B: Who want to perform this piece or.
