Extreme Cello Extreme Cello is the extreme sport that you might not have heard about before. Along with Extreme Ironing, it's
one of the newest extreme sports around. In 2003, two teachers and a university professor from England started
playing their cellos in unusual outdoor places to raise money for charity. Since then they have earned fame as
the Extreme Cello Players and have given performances in extreme locations all over Britain and Ireland. In 2006,
they played on the roofs of 42 churches around England in 12 days. The team has also climbed the four highest
mountains in Britain and Ireland with their cellos. That's 4,445m of climbing! As Clare Wallace, the oldest
member of the team, explains, Extreme Cello is not just about music, «Extreme Cello is actually a physical sport.
A cello is a big instrument and we have climbed many stone stairs and steep hills on our adventures.» The team
spend a lot of time in the gym to keep in shape and follow a healthy diet. But what's next for the Extreme Cello
team? James Reese, the youngest member of the team, says that Extreme Cello will continue «We've done a
number of challenges in the past, but we are always looking for something new - something even more
extreme.»
