Listening to Portland Cello Project and the track Denmark from their album "Thousand Words." Heard this first on NPR and tracked it down. Then got into Portland Cello Project and have a couple of their albums. As you might guess this is a cello group from Portland although they do incorporate some other instruments the main thrust is cello. They have some interesting goals for the group as follows:

  1. "To bring the cello to places you wouldn't normally hear it."

  2. "To play music on the cello you wouldn't normally hear played on the instrument."

  3. "To build bridges across all musical communities by bringing a diverse assortment of musical collaborators on stage with them."

Great video on Youtube for this track as well.
