Cello - Minuet (Boccherini)

[harpsichord666]

i wish my hands could fly like that. beautiful!!

[Monkeesgirls]

I am learning this piece and I would like to know how to get the beat down on this one?

[joshewin2]

Showoff.

[lyricallane]

I have played cello for three years.  I think you are really good, but I wish you would play the songs slower.

[musicwithin43]

feedback for you, dont forget to ENJOY what your playing, and maybe even smile once in a while ; )

p.s. what kind of recording equipment did you use? camera, video camera etc... thanks for the music!

[Hikikomori013]

The resonance is incredible when you play this on a cello. I think I like it.

[90rosilviu]

very beautiful

[MrTBA97]

I can play this piece :D ABRSM grade 5 doesn't require repeats so it's all good :P

[AchmelvichIsAce]

@MrTBA97 i'm doing it too. and yeah, the repeats take so long :D

[AgitatedCookies]

could you please put up allegro moderato for cello

[megsters1325]

that was really good. i am playing this at my recital today.

[musicprodigy97]

whoa . you play the cello, violin & viola? wow . well, I heard that the a violinist would be able to pick up the viola really easily because its almost the same but bigger in size. I've tried my friend's and it was kinda a big difference in size compared to the violin. so is the face that violinists will be able to pick up the viola easily true?

[BellaRenesemeeedward]

I'm thinking about doing this for Solo ensemble next year. Do you have any Ideas on the difficulty rating on this piece? I need something about the same difficulty as the Back Suite 1 Prelude. Thank you! (: And It sounds BEAUTIFUL!

[stringvideos]

@BellaRenesemeeedward The Bach Prelude I is definitely more complex musically (articulation, voicing...). I would ask your teacher for input... Thanks for the nice comments!

[BellaRenesemeeedward]

@stringvideos Thank you! :D

[ericoschmitt]

@BellaRenesemeeedward this piece is a lot easier than bach prelude.. ive been trying to play that suite for over 2 years and i dont think its good yet, and i have been playing only the allemande and prelude, which is about 2 and a half pages, and the total is.. 6 i think

[91Matteoz]

Fantastico!!!!!

[aboelshee7]

Beautiful

[LeafeonandSunshine]

LOL

[TheTsuda2]

Hey, can i ask a question? Do you mind putting up a video of how to do excellent vibrato on the violin? I Really need to know for my next Advanced Orchestra Concert.

[stringvideos]

@TheTsuda2 I don't even know where to start with this one...

[LeafeonandSunshine]

bravo. ;-)



[candresbadboy]

[LadyPez]

[AskOracle]

played really well, although minuet is meant to be danced to and at this speed dont you think it would be hard to in big frocks and heels?

[stringvideos]

@AskOracle Interesting point, Oracle... I must have imagined "young" aristocrats... :) Thanks for the feedback!

[obizin]

You are an excellent celloist (do you spell this way?) and this piece is being suberb played. I also play the cello but, of course, I do not have as many years of practise as you. However, I would like to know if you have the sheet for this music because I can only find the sheet for quintets and it would be a great piece for me to train my speed and accuracy. I am sorry to bother you but if you have it, I would dare to ask you if you could send it to me.

Thank you for your time.

[gunblader928]

@obizin I'm not sure about the sheets, i know its in the Suzuki Violin book 2. It might use the same pieces for cello, considering this comes from a quartet (or was it a quintet?) where the first violin has this piece.

either way what i /do/ know is that it is spelled "cellist"

[queenofdarkness546]

Bravo!

[TheMaddster18]

great videos! would you consider doing tutorials for different bowing techniques, etc.

[madcoolmonkey]

hmm... I have to play this in four days for nyssma...

[YukixHeart]

I like how this song sounds on violin better but its cool on cello too.

[theheightsballer]

Wow...That was great!!! Kudos to you!

[ConfusingProductions]

Great playing! How long have you been playing the cello?

[stringvideos]

@ConfusingProductions For a while... :) These are for my students, to help them practice (better)... Thanks for watching!

[smurfchick101]

:O will i have to be this level to be able to pass my grade 5 on cello? your amazing- i don't think i could ever be at your level :S

[PrinceWilliamAntichr]

yeah very good

[OfficialPodawack]

OMG! You're AWESOME at the cello! I play cello, and am good, but I don't know if i could reach that level!

[stringvideos]

@OfficialPodawack Thousand miles, one step at a time... You can do it! Patience, discipline, clear goals, constant focus. Remember to repeat, and repeat to remember. I could wish you luck, but I don't believe in it... Best wishes, though!

[stringvideos]

@beautifulmusicnotes Oh, that Suzuki... :) I thought you mean the bikes... Suzuki is less of a method and more of a compilation of traditional European Classical music pieces... As to the method, well, it's not that much new stuff compared to the pedagogical works of early 20th century; there isn't much that hasn't been said before... Don't forget Suzuki studied in Germany, in the traditional European method... Enough said!

[stringvideos]

@beautifulmusicnotes No, I used the music, and memorize like that...

[stringvideos]

@beautifulmusicnotes

Actually, I learnt it from Boccherini. I didn't know you could learn from a motorcycle... :)

[Soundscraper]

If you've actually seen the sheet music Kairi, you'll learn that it does call for staccato.

[KairiShy]

are you using stacato?

[hsingjie]

Very Nice.

[DanWallMontagnana]

this song is amazing i love playing it all the time

[Whirlystar]

I'm learning this for my grade 5 and really wish I could play it as well as this guy!! :)

[tijgertje1313]

Great video! I started learn playng cello last september, but i love this pece so much, that I have to play it! My teacher was shocked, when I took it voor my last lesson to check, of the fingers are on the right place. I have no idea, why I try to play the most part of trio on D-string, up to V position??? It souns good... Yours version is so much easier, I don't get it, why I make my life so hard ;-)
