Graham Smith of VDGG, only in The Quiet Zone/The Pleasure Dome, unfortunately.

And the live album "Vital", on which you also find a cello, played by Charles Dickie. One of the best live albums ever. Also several Hammill solo albums ("Over","The Future Now", "PH7").
 
I prefer the man's work in those String Driven Thing albums, especially in s/t and Machine That Cried
 
 
Cello:
 
Lindsey Cooper of Henry Cow
Ana-sofi Dahlberg of Anekdoten
Marko Manninen  of Hoyry Kone and Alamaailman Vasarat ("Death Metal" cellos in the first two albums)
 
 
----------------
 
Edit: s Dick was typing his StarStarStarStarStar awesome postClap, I am now only able to add David Rose (Ribero + Alpes, Transit Express and a few more French prog groups)

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Flairck actually had several violinists besides Sylvia Houdzager: Luluk Purwanto,  Judy Schomper (who also played viola), Lorre Lynn Trytten (who also played kokyo, which is a Japanese violin, accordion, spinet and percussion) and Mirella Pirskanen, they also had a cello player for some time, Marieke van der Heyden.

Thanks. For the most part I rely on folks like you to provide such details, wrt many of these musicians - therefore I'm limited to what is provided. More given, the more I include.

Would be fair to add "J. L. Webber", to the list,  for his work on A. L. Webbers Varriations.
 
Papa John Creach (RIP), for his work on the Sunfighter & Baron von Tollbooth & the Chrome Nun, two brilliant prog recordings fra early 70's by Kanter/Slick (side projects to Jefferson).

Don´t be angry for me, but I have felt a boredom. Something like former Ossie TV show "Ein Kessel Buntes" with a musical-clown bonus in the end.

The clip is taken from "Horton's kleine Nacxhrtmusik", which was an excellent program featuring unusual artists. To compare it with "Ein Kessel Buntes" is way off the mark,.

Unusual. Maybe. But that´s all. And my mention about Ein Kessel Buntes please discount. Your video has, that is, a little cabaret scent.

I was gonna mention Allan Sloane but somebodys already beat me to it. LOL

Dick, you would have to go and ruin the thread by listing everyone. Tongue
I see you even have Scarlett Rivera on the list.  She did some nice solo albums I haven't heard in years.
