Can a cello change the world?

The HA!Man enters. No words. Something soft, something stirring, a whisper, perhaps whistling: mystery, from where and where to? No performance the same. Always a journey through the known and unknown. Something refined and classical - cello and piano, or full orchestra. Something serene for the soul.

A movement of the hand, or hands - something like the exquisite "Slow Waltz" recorded for his unborn daughter. And then an exploration, an experimentation - "Global Warming" or playing to the beat of an old running engine. Then a rush of high energy, cello brilliance, a dance with colourful drapes. A keyboard improvisation on a theme given by the audience, perhaps. A rap made up of mouth sounds, perhaps. Then a march or a jazzy swing, turning the cello into a drum set! Great sadness enters in the form of "Relentless Tears", overwhelming cello passion in the form of "The Herd Came Down" (over two hundred original tracks to choose from). And then on to the festive and the jolly - was that an arrangement of Mendelssohn's Wedding March (for instance)? Anyone who wants to join on stage?

And finally a home-coming, the all-embracing "Her \Time Has Come" or "Beautiful Land." Or all, singing a new song together.. Described as "a composer-performer in full flight," "downright magical" and "totally unexpected" by critics and audience members the world over, the HA!Man's self-made career spans three decades.

"This is not a show. It is an experience. I'll never forget it for as long as I'm alive." Independent, all-ages, all venues. But mostly where there is allowance for a full breath of HA! For more, visit www.hamanworld.com.
