Tangerine for solo jazz cello, performed by cellist Matthew Agnew. This sweet solo cello improv is sure to bring a smile! We’ll soon be able to have small micro weddings and mini weddings again, including solo and duo musicians from our Chicago wedding band, and solo cello is an excellent choice for these small wedding celebrations!

Starting as relaxing cello music, the peaceful cello music shifts to a pizzicato bossa nova in this cello jazz version of Tangerine.
