No I can't. Of course I can't do it on a cello either. But this Debussy piece does sound better played on cello or violin than a piano.

ushoys it actually sounds great in any arrangement. Different feel but all are great. And I get a strong Vaughn Williams vibe. Wonder if he inspired him
At 1:23 the cellist playing the melody almost makes the cello sound as if it’s crying, beautiful that’s all I can say!

Funny, cause for me thats at 1:50, mostly cause the harmonies are much darker here and it higlights the almost painful melody, but In your case its the opposite, the harmony is much brighter and it clashes, not in a bad way, with the melody
How perfect, how can something have such a truth? Debussy said "Works of art makes rules; rules do not make works of art." I am so grateful for his romantic impressionist approach to music, during a time when others were way too restricted.
No matter the instruments used or the arrangement, the music of Debussy always moves me...the sheer beauty and emotion he creates is extraordinary. The SAKURA performance is sublime.
I've watched this at least 30 times. I've cried at least 29 of those times
I got instant chills on the first chord

I heard this and was deeply moved, back to a time when peasant girls worked the fields and would stand among the bright golden shafts of wheat and rye in the bright sunlight. Such a warm piece of music.

@@ryacoli WRONG, you cannot stand in a field of wheat or rye chaffs. The lovely description given by @Dedra Kaye DeHart is perfectly ok and referred to the peasant girls standing in a field of uncut wheat or rye and was poetically expressed in her own way. Chaff is created AFTER the wheat or Rye has been cut down and processed. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaff e.g Chaff (/tʃæf/; also UK: /tʃɑːf/)[1] is the dry, scaly protective casing of the seeds of cereal grains, or similar fine, dry, scaly plant material such as scaly parts of flowers, or finely chopped straw. Chaff is indigestible by humans, but livestock can eat it and in agriculture it is used as livestock fodder, or is a waste material ploughed into the soil or burned.

Purer and simpler times.

My favorite arrangement. The sensitivity of the cellists’ articulation really captures how delicate of a piece this can be.
This literally gave me goosebumps. I love the classical piano and the symphony orchestra but there is something about the Cellos. Amazing job fellas.

The wonderfulness and comfort of their performances are unrivaled, and indescribable
Ugh this is dreamy ❤️. Truly wonderful, romantic rendition. Thank you ❤️
This is a short but beautiful piece of music and I've always loved it!
The flaxer Hair a minha favorita, melodia maravilhosa que trás paz . Interpretação esplêndida, sincronia perfeita. Parabéns a todos os músicos envolvidos
Still watch this all the time; for years now!
How could anyone not find this moving and beautifull.
that last chord is absolute perfection.
When I hear this piece, I am so grateful to be alive. The essence of beautiful music !
neither my heart nor my mind can reconcile what my soul hears and feels: there is joy and peace juxtaposed against melancholia and nostalgia; I feel a longing for what is not there... people and places; the memories of yesteryears; the sweet drops of time that seem to last an eternity while at the same time disappear in an instant. I too have fallen in love, but wonder who the recipient is.
Whow. Til now the piano version was my favourite - but now I can't help thinking that I have to rethink... Hearing such utter beauty I feel that there is hope for us human beings. But not much, I'm afraid...
This is one of my favorite piano pieces and just happened to find this, holy shit...
So simple and yet so rich. You can feel DuBussy's emotion. Terrific job, gentlemen. You captured that composition for me.
Beautiful, sooo..gentle and relaxing.
This song touched me so much the 1st time I heard it..Just lovely.
1:50 Canserbero - C'est la mort. Goosebumps! El Can VIVE! ♥️
It made me think of a time when thought life would never end
so moving, gorgeous performance.
My heart is going to explode! Wonderful interpretation. In my humble opinion, the pizzicato in the end should never have existed... Besides that, it's one of the most beatiful versions I've ever heard. Greetings from Lima - Peru.

Just finished reading the wonderful novel The Keeper of Secrets by Julie Thomas. This music figures heavily in the narrative, lovely to hear it so beautifully played.
