Adding to Versatile's already wonderful list I'd add Elgar's E minor Cello concerto and, although taking a bit of a back seat, the cello work in Schubert's piano trios, op99 and op100 is sublime.

I really might try a cello. What the heck? One more instrument I'll be able to play inadequately. I can play a couple tunes on the fiddle, but overall, I find the fiddle (violin) to be a beast for me. Just got a nice keyboard a couple weeks ago. I do know where the chords are on a piano, so if I put some time on the keyboard, I should do okay.
