This audio is not downloadable due to copyright restrictions.

For today's music feature we take a look at a very versatile instrument - and one  you probably hear a lot more than you realise: the cello.

Heleen du Plessis is a cellist, who teaches at Otago University, and has international experience as a soloist, chamber musician, and in orchestras. She talks to Jesse about the incredible instrument and an upcoming retreat for cellists and Cello Extravaganza.
