Cello sounds too heavy?

I'd recorded a cello piece. Since I have no experience about mixing cello, I think the cello sounds too heavy and too dark. I'd cut the bass a little bit, but still sounds too "ohm". I'm afraid if I cut it too much it won't sound like cello anymore. Anyone give me some idea or trick here?
Please feed back! Thank you!

It doesn't sound too dark; it sounds too distant. The piano's fine, but the cello sounds like it was recorded in a warehouse. How'd you record it?
 
Actually I recorded cello then backed up by synth strings and added a church reverb effect. As you guys just told me, I think I should back off the reverb.
