This is Rachel playing Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming arranged by Mark Summer. It is one of the few recordings available on the Web.
I can't tell you much about Rachel, she's somewhere in the Chicago, Illinois. Here is the link to her youtube channel:

If you are in Chicago - check out Rachel next time she's playing a gig.
If you are interested you can get copies of the sheet music it is available from quite a few vendors. I purchased my copy from Shar Music, but is also available from Amazon, and everything Cello. Mark Summer made a recording of it on the Turtle Island String Quartet album, By the Fireside.
Hey, I'm a weekend cellist. I really like cello, classical and otherwise. I've found some really talented and creative approaches to this instrument and want to share. And maybe I'll record something myself and post it occasionally. So pull up a chair watch, listen, send me feedback if you like. Cheers.

Merry Christmas
I'm a sucker for a good arrangement of traditional Christmas carols this time of year. And O Come Emanuel is one of my favorite. Enjoy!
