  • Ahh, I practice playing the cello for 4 years and I moved to a new school and come to find out the had o orchestra there, My heart was broken. 4 years just down the toilet, UGH.

  • Just watch his face. xD

  • wt is the songs name!?!?!

    

  • @osmanhallak Bach - 'Cello Suite no.1: Prelude'

  • I'm doing some research into Cellos and this was just the thing to convince me that I want to be a Cellist. The sound is amazing and I can't wait to start learning! Beautiful!

  • i play violin too!! first chair lol :)

  • You sound beautiful!!!

  • CAN YOU GUIYS GO VIEWE MY CHANNEL PLEASE

  • what kind of cello is this?

  • I have one comment. It was pretty good and it was cleanly done. Yet you did one thing wrong for baroque style music. You kept on changing the tempo. Yes you are aloud to hold a few notes longer than some others and you don't have to strictly follow the music on the page but changing the tempos scales either means you need to work on your relationship between your right and left hand, or it means that your trying to put your own take on it. EIther way is okay but it changes the suite completely.

  • @Toad2SIX your a little bit wrong, in music everything is allowed when it sounds good and I would say he couldnt done it better..

  • I wanna play that song, I'll try to play it by ear because I don't have the sheet music :/

  • @IchigoKonayuki imslp.org has all the classical sheet music you can imagine

  • what song is this

  • I LOVE THIS!!!

    

  • I like it and now i wanna learn how to play that and yea im a cellist but only in middle school

  • I play violin, but I just LOVE cello!!! It's my favorite!

  • Quite frankly, when going back and just listen to your playing, intonation is great but it actually doesnt SOUND emotion-filled the way you are trying to make it appear

  • good playing:) but i would like to add: i know facial expressions express your emotion of the piece, but i feel as though you slightly over-emphasize them here; at some points the faces are a little too distracting. Im not saying you cant make facial expressions but in this case it just looks like you are playing a VERY dramatic piece when you're not.

  • i play the cello for my schools orcastra

  • im about ot start learning orchestra instruments and continue with my band and voice gonna have learned 14 instruments when im done

  • a good musician always has interesting facial expressions [;

  • I play cello, it's my favorite. But i'm switching to viola:l

  • absolutely amazing

  • What level is this? Beginner, intermediate, grandmaster? Just out of curiosity i dont know much about cellos, or music for that matter.

  • @Ibakecookiess intermediate

  • Bach Cello Suite 1

  • what is the exact name for this song?

  • @MrJayRibs Bach Cello Suite 1 Prelude

  • @MrJayRibs Prelude _ Bachs cello suite No. 1

  • @hitsugaya36 bach's cello suite prelude no 1 or something like that

  • OMG ur great!!!!!

  • who ever says something mean about this is jealous so if ur 1 of em admit ur jealousy

  • this piece, whenever i hear it makes me want to almost cry, its just so lovely. and you play it so well, you can see your very passionate about music :)

  • @robbie121981 you Obviously are a twelve year old boy who is jealous of this man. Music is not played with your facial expressions. It is played from the heart with soul. So quit putting people down like this. Great video by the way.

  • Imagine if there was no cello and bow. LOL!

  • i had today my first cello lesson

  • excuse the language, but this guy is playing from the fucking heart. excellent!

  • This guy is good (nice job) but if you want to hear a master type in; Rostropovich plays the Prelude from Bach's Cello Suite No. 1

  • すばらしい♪

  • It's like you body is telling the Cello what to do.....not your mind or your hands

  • bad face he have

  • What mic did you use for this please?

  • love this you play with feelings nice job

  • amazing :) 

  • Like if Octavia brought you here lol

  • he's pretty good.

  • awesome~ i love it! you are inspiring me to practice this beautiful instrument!

  • Awesome! The only word I would say

  • Hahaha! I love your smile at the beginning, it seems to say "Yeah that's right, it's THIS cello solo."

  • Awesome :)

  • oh dear... when am i (if ever) going to play like this?

  • the tempo change isnt much different from the original, in fact, its a little thing called dynamic, look it up people. ive been studying musical arts for 5 years now people. i learned about this my first year.

  • Is that me, or does that cello look like it has more than 4 srings

  • @coolkean18 its you..

  • @coolkean18 It's just you :)

  • Actually he IS playing this, dont know if you've noticed or not but you can hear the ring from the cello; and you dont hear that on discs because they tune the cello just right so there is no ring. And the bowing... im doing this for my NSMA solo .. a school program where we have to play a solo for a judge and then they will score us on how well we preformed, then we will go to all-county which is all string students that did a level 2 or higher .. I hope I preform as well as he did! :D

  • es una melodia sublime¡¡¡¡¡ es un instrumento maravilloso

  • Whats the song called again?

  • Muito legal vc toca muito, gostaria de saber que corda você usa ?

  • @sunnyg1991 have you ever seen anybody play an instrument up close? obviously not. that is how they look. he is most definitely playing this.

  • this is so fake he isnt even playing it!

  • @sunnyg1991 fuck you

  • @DomestikMC real mature....lol

  • @sunnyg1991 my bad. let my temper get the best of me

  • absolutely beautiful, thank you

  • 1:13 shit i just farted hope that noone heard it xD

  • Absolutely Beautiful xx

  • Beautifully played. :) Thank you for sharing. 

  • smileeeeeee :)

  • what kind of sound....so attractive

  • SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL

  • @MrGallant210 Me too!! :D

  • I have played this piece many times but I must admit that I don't think I've ever enjoyed as much as he does. If you can't get personal pleasure from playing, than you're missing out. I guess I can learn from this wonderful player. Keep playing and keep having fun.

  • Dont they have a commercial that sounds like this

  • other then technical stuff like being a little too rough on the lower strings, needs a little more connection between string crossings, its great. tempo changes are too drastic and the piece shouldnt end like that on one string but on both. and its too soft spoken on the end, it needs to be louder and more inspirational

  • @arod68993 hmmm,....are you always so critical? If you look for imperfections, you'll find plenty, no matter who's playing.

  • @241hnd no. but ive been playing for a long time, im helping by just a few pointers its very good, and the best part is that he is one with the music. i didnt take away from anything.

  • @arod68993 OK, I misunderstood.

  • @arod68993 The point of it is to interpret it in your own way. The imperfections are what makes it beautiful. The tempo changes aren't too drastic, they're more dramatic. I think it's beautifly done and I'd give anything to play like this.

  • rock that cello boy!

  • I've only heard this as a full orchestra preformence, not a solo. It sounds beautiful though!!! But his facial expressions are price less :D

  • I'm a 7th grade cellist, and I'd just like to say, you rock man.

  • what is the name of this song n who wrote it ???? You play beautifuly !!!!

  • @7727Tinaduhh It's the prelude to Bach's Suite No. 1.

  • Awesome

  • Very special feeling ! Thanx from Italy

  • I love cello too!!!

  • Niceeee XDDD

  • Amazing.

  • great talent, great sound, it's just so much better when played by a hot babe!

  • I dont love Cello, i love violín!

  • What is this Song? O.o

  • @Kevinp52 Bach cello suite 1. prelude

  • love a musician that gets into it!

  • It may help the viewers understand what exactly you're playing if you listed the TITLE of the song. It's the PRELUDE to the FIRST SUITE of Bach's six suites.

  • You're so expressive I love it haha

  • 71 people can't play Bach music...

  • ho could not like this

  • wow

  • I really like it! :)

  • You are amazing, very nice work!

  • Good job! Sounds so beautiful, love cello music

  • to say truth i swearim only 12 and i can play this without looking at sheet

  • @demolisher650 yeah lol Im learning this in my classes now.

  • The best of the classical string instruments!!!

  • The cello plays such AMAZING sounds. it plunches through my heart with so much happiness. :)

  • how do you like yoyo doing Morricone's "deborah's theme"? Amazing!

  • i dont care if this is sheet music or from ear, you play it well my friend. keep up this beautiful gift you have.

  • I do like your playing and you have a good sound, tone etc and all credit to you.

    But the bowing for me on this is all wrong, it completely alters the music and its not as the original piece was written,

    So for me personally , it goes against the grain, no pun intended.

    Best wishes

  • @cellizzimo this particular prelude has several different bowings. Depending on personal taste, you play the one you like best. I like the one he is using, it's the one my teacher is having me do because it flows more easily and the notes aren't as choppy.

    

  • No other word but Beauty can describe BACH

  • what an instrument, i believe my long search for the perfect one for me has finally come to an end

  • awesome! the only thing i would say is you got a little close to the fingerboard otherwise it is amazing! i cant play any thing like that yet but im still just a learner! :)

  • the guy is an ipod.

  • Other than the creepy facial expressions, I'd give this guy an A+

  • thank you and peace.

  • I love this!

  • We can see that you love the cello alot, makes me happy to see that passion, great job

  • Great!!

    

  • amazing!!

  • Nice I thought that was amazing.

  • Hi... I think I meant that , you need a good ear to play this wonderful unfretted instrument.I will take some lessons.But I am also willing to self learn to some extent. I am 100 k from a teacher. And the internet is a great tool! Thanks again for your lovely playing!

  • O cara goza junto com o cello, ahsuahsuahsua, muito bom

  • I am buying a cello this week..... how many years for me to be so wonderful? I am 60 and play ukulele , button accordion and trumpet- so I come with a good ear.Any advice? I will be playing by ear to start with..... You are very , very good- love listening.

  • this is great, i've been playing cello for almost 4 years and i can play this a little better than you, but you still did great

  • good job. a lot of people told me that they love to hear myself playing cello.

  • May I board your ship, Captain?

  • I love how in cello solos like this one, the left hand does a dance across the fingerboard ^__^

  • loved this performance

  • I love his facial expressions!! XD

  • @XxXDevilCatXxX that's the expressions of a true musician :)

  • We just love cello !!!! We love bach , we love this prelude ! <3

  • You Remind me of when i play caise that`s how i am i really get into the music=]

  • i absolutely am IN LOVE with the sound of the cello...by far the most beautiful of the stringed instruments in my opinion. :) Beautiful job!

  • at 1:14 he was getting an orgasm from the slow vibrations of the C string...

  • I love you facial expression

  • this sounds so lovely! Full of musical passion!

  • I don't play cello or anything. but when your building up to the climax of the song. don't hold back. if anything you should be at the highest of intensity of the whole song. You totally backed off. I'm a clarinetist :p

  • @I2seckidI its different with a cello.

  • my future music teacher :)

  • This is one of the few musicians I know that actually enjoy when they play music. :P

  • this is beautiful! thanks for sharing with us!

  • I love your facial expressions. Not only are the a little funny but they show that you can feel the music. I hear too many people play their instruments with such a monotone and robotic like way. It's crap. I am glad that you can play music like its supposed to be. . . Music, emotion and expression

  • This is so wonderful. I finally have the opportunity to have lessons this summer with a provided cello. I am so thankful, I hope I can play like this one day. Such a beautiful and inspiring instrument!

  • this is beautiful!

    i remember when I was going into the orchestra in the 6th grade and they wanted to put me on cello, but I was like no I wanted to play the violin. I later regretted that decision and wished I would have played the cello but I don't regret learning a classical instrument. I haven't touched my violin in 6 years and listening to you and seeing your passion has renewed my drive to play again.

    Thank you

  • this is beautiful

  • great facials

  • are you sluring? NICE

  • I think he hit the Brown note at 1:14.

  • Você faz expressões faciais somente para parecer "O sentimental" mas não é porque você vê que GRANDES violoncelistas tocam com sentimento e expressões faciais, que você tem que fazer. suas expressões faciais não são naturais, são forçadas. E tome cuidado com a mão esquerda, a do arco. Você levanta o dedinho toda hora.

  • This is actually the first song i've memorized when I was 7 years old, locked away in my room away from my abusive father.... this song I can now play like an abstract painting, so many colors, so beautiful...

  • fuck yeah you love it, this is great

  • great try do better next time

  • Comment removed

  • Man I want to learn that instrument !

  • i need to learn how to get that passion he has when he plays. i need to learn how to move and get into the song that would be nice
