Wow, a massive improvement on the last recording. I'm curious as to what else this recording could have in the way of improvement because certainly from the listener's point of view, it's fantastic. I was dissapointed to hear the key change when I listened to this version after your first attempt. I'm learning this piece by ear, on violin and it would have been a great help to play along. Could you lend me a hand by telling me the notes to the violin (arpeggio is it?) part in the middle. Thanks
Beautifully done! I'm a Freshmen in Highschool, and I'm really striving to become a great cellist. I love how you played this, and with the baroque cello it sounded fantastic!
agree with the staccato comment. Your snatching for the notes a little bit too much. Smooth it down and let it flow. But great tone and great effort. nearly perfect :)
@link0911ds Baroque instruments are often tuned to an A 415 instead of an A 440. This recording is in the right key, but it sounds about a half a step lower. Whether or not Boccherini used this pitch is a different matter.
hi there, great performance...i'm not a musician but i would like to ask why u think this "take 2" is better than first attempt cause i prefere much longer the other. So can u let me understand the technical reason that make it greater ? I think the other performance has more passion, fluidity and involvement. Thank you for your answer. Antonio
many thanks! It's supposed to be a "problematization" of an artist for my Media Arts Survey class, but my project has basically devolved into a parody of Master and Commander compressed into three minutes :P How would you like to be credited?
Hey, I was wondering if you would mind if I used the audio for a short piece I'm doing for an video art project? I would of course credit you and direct people to your page :)
awesome improvement with the tempo and audio quality.
just a tip, you may want to try to keep the cello licks within the same style, more legato and connected, less staccato. other than that, i say good job.
btw, your cello has a very nice sound. who is the maker?
In this take I was going for a more period style, as opposed to the more modern style of the first take. Naturally, this take does not have the legato and connected style that the first take had. In the first take I used my modern cello, whereas in this take I used my baroque cello. I therefore used different bow strokes on this take for stylistic reasons, and also because baroque cellos respond differently.
Sorry, to clarify, my baroque cello was at some point after its creation setup as a modern cello. In 2008 I essentially set it back up as a baroque cello. This involved changing the neck angle and handmaking a new fingerboard, tailpiece, nut, and button (in place of an endpin), as well as carving a baroque style bridge.
I don't know specifically what piece you're referring to, but if you can give me further details, I can definitely look into it. Thanks for the recommendation.
Great work! I love this piece. I play the violin myself, but I was just wondering how you move your bow when you play the parts between 0.50 and 0.60, and at the end? You play really well ;D
I start with an up bow on the bottom note of the arpeggio then on the top note I switch to a down bow. I hope that answers your question. Thanks for the comment.
Thumbs up if you got here because you play Academagia!

My baroque cello was made in 1753 Austria by a maker called Andreas Nicolaus Parth. I set it up as a baroque cello myself (with some help) in 2008.
