| Useful Hong Kong cello resources |
I've been doing a bit of investigating to help Helen with buying strings and a bow for her cello, but couldn't find a dedicated HK web page for cello resources... so I thought I'd make one!
So, if you're interested in buying cello accessories, a cello, or having cello lessons, some of these links might just help you (no guarantees, as we haven't actually called any of them yet :)

Awesome video, matt! I guess you would be pretty good on the cello if you had 6 hands. I like.
