Cello Basics : Cello Music Demonstration

[Kismeki7]

She didn't mess up, although the interpretation was a little choppy, partly due to her decision not to slur much.

BTW, @aSpadeRawrs, you would also have to cut a new bridge and fingerboard, as it's not only the strings that must be reversed, but also the gradual taper to one side as one goes farther down the register.

[xXBleedingXBriannaXx]

Is it just me or did she mess up a little?

[aSpadeRawrs]

I'm sooo happy! Afterbthree years of begging and pleading, I am finally gonna get my cello!! >.< and @ayozaBitStrange yeah.. you would.. u'd just have to switch shoulders and move the strings around.

[ayozaBitStrange]

I really would love to learn how to play but I am left-handed. Would I have to do everything reverse?!

[ioanarocksyou]

[Polakken1]

It so nice to play the Cello I have play the cello fore 9 years, and it's just !!

[Raemanooga]

that showed you nothing of the cello

[1313Anna1313]

Hey I was wondering if you knew what to but on pegs to keep them from slipping. Whenever I try and use the pegs they slip. No matter how far in the pegs are they slip. A guy told me to put rozen on the pegs, but all of my old strings teachers told me to never do that. So I was just wondering if you knew what to use to keep them from slipping.

i find most of these videos useful, i never played cello in my life and practiced 7 hours for 3 days and i got into select orchestra :D but ofc i play guitar,bass,piano,and drums >_>.....

[retech9691]

This was the Prelude to Bach Cello Suite 3 in C Major, not the Courante. It was also only the beginning.

[MonacoBlast]

My God--You are Hot!

[nic100389]

I love Bach!! Great demo on the prelude to the third suite

[Wierdoinc]

Cello is a beautiful instrument, I hope I can learn it someday

[OoSauronoO]

that was courante of the cello suite by J.S. Bach, its nice :D

[violetparme]

it says "free lesson video" in the "more info section"; a lesson is a moment in which you learn something or rather someone wants to teach you something! has she got the feeling she is teaching anybody anything?well, I ' m glad I did have to pay 30 € for this, not even 1 € !

[violetparme]

sorry! I meant ..."I did NOT have to pay ...."

[RandomMuch1337]

YEAH girl you rush that Bach

[thynameismrbob]

i am a preteen girl, and i'm smaller and shorter than most of my friends, and i was wondering if i could get a size appropriate cello that's maybe built for my size? please comment back!

[dt2577]

[theamazingplant2]

[thynameismrbob]

@theamazingplant2 oh well i already got a 4/4 and i have been taking lessons for a while now but thanks anyways (:

[Thundermaned]

That's cool. :D

I started quite recently as well, but without lessons. Would cost quite a lot for me otherwise. (€25,- per lesson o_O)

It's just that there are no boundary's, if you haven't enough money to play a instrument, just make sure you do got the money.

[dbpsoccer121]

I totally understand how the price of cello lessons from a decent teacher can be a pain. I would, however, suggest taking at least a few in the beginning; as this video says, "it takes a lot longer to un-learn bad habits than it does to learn good ones in the first place."

[Thundermaned]

Than do it!

[steaiii]

omg that was awesome... "bet she thinks she's talking to ppl who can't even spell 'steel'"

"no dur its not made of steal"

that was epic xD!

[Flipperwowpow]

"the cello is made of wood" well no dur its not made of steal

[mysork]

you're right, i bet she thinks she's talking to people who can't even spell "steel"

[VeniceToDance]

date fisso suea testa... ma co un legno beo grosso!!!

[jewinc]

exspenible????? ha! love it.

[mrslimbeck]

ew ew ew! The last note was off.

Um....;-; fix it? please? It was gorgeous except for that....

Where's the Elgar cello concerto?!?!

[TJhinata]

damn she pwns on cello

[ColonialFifer]

I've played classical piano, a bit of violin and various types of flutes my entire life, but cello has always captivated me. In my opinion, it's the most beautiful of the instruments in every aspect. I would absolutely love to learn how to play.

[frdrcksncn]

cello really does tests your patience :D

[anthonydilorenzo]

sounds nice

[TheAwesomeJayandGray]

very nice video. You have some real talent at playing the cello. *jealousy*

[seohyojeong]

It's a good cello. Envy

[Jangof3tt]

she was a bit flat on the last note, but she fixed it by the time she was done with the note.

[KatieKeen123]

that is a good sounding cello right there(:

[badkat64]

anyone know where to buy a really good cello? mine isnt that great. and it doesnt help with my playing...

[jojojohnpau]

Where do you live? Robertsons and Sons is good. Ifshin's violins is also good.

[TheShotgunChannel]
