Bach - Marcello Adagio BWV 974



Dear Karen (my cello-playing daughter),

In the novel "Fifty Shades of Grey", Anastasia Steele listens to the haunting piano music of her sadistic lover Christian Grey, in the morning after they make love (f-ck, using his words). The music is Bach-Marcello Adagio BWV974. I found two versions in YouTube, one on the piano by James Rhodes, and the other on the cello by Orfeo Mandozzi:

It seems to me a beautiful cello piece that you might one day play for us.
