I'd like to see her try that while playing an accordion.

I'd like to see someone try to build an ice accordion! Seriously, guys, what's with the ice cello? It must have sounded like a drowned cat. If you wanted to see more naked body, why not go with a Plexiglass cello?

The title is inaccurate. She played the cello in the nude, not just topless.

I thought she was just a topless cellist who had forgotten to wear her bottom because she was so concentrated on her music.
