    Thanks ! That was very interesting. Could do teach us how to prevent squeaking from the bow ? I have some issue to hold my bow correctly when I play. It doesn't remain "straight" but it happens to lean foward or backwards... The notes doesn't sound great because of that

    my cello at school never squeaks and i play really well but the cello i use at home is squeaky and makes me quit minutes after playing with it. is there any common reason for this that i’m doing wrong? IK it’s not technique

  • @madonnabuiter733
    @madonnabuiter733 Před 4 lety +3

    I have been getting some squeakies......?! I have more trouble though when I have to play an open G note or I have been working on 'Over the Rainbow' and when I have to come back to a dotted minum open D after a quaver C# on the G....?? it's probably more my bow arm but is really annoying....?

    • @CelloCoach
      @CelloCoach  Před 4 lety +2

      Like in m.7 ? Yes, I see. Left you palm away from the fingerboard, and to aid this push your thumb towards the left side of the neck. This action lifts the palm. If the squeak can be a harmonic, that means your 4th finger is well-placed yet also the problem. Sorry for this very late reply. Hope your family is having a healthy 2020.

      Hey Angela. I honestly recorded the entire Book 1 in this camera angle and it was hard. Maybe I will take a look at it again.

  • @mistimurphy1010
    @mistimurphy1010 Před 4 lety

    I am VERY VERY new to cello. I purchased an electric cello, as I wanted to play electric eventually....Is there any derogatory issue(s) that would be better served by an acoustic cello? Also, I am considering new D’addario strings as those that came with them are less than stellar, and I hope that better strings might help. Thoughts? I also have ordered a carbon fiber bow. Per suggestions in your videos, I am trying to upgrade my inexpensive electric. My other thought is that I go ahead and order the acoustic, and use the upgraded strings, etc on it.....Sorry for the looongg message. -misti

    • @CelloCoach
      @CelloCoach  Před 4 lety +2

      Yes on the D'Addario strings, and hold on the acoustic cello. Get to know the cello you have now, and if you feel a need to change/upgrade or even add, then carry on yet only after you have "sunk you teeth" into the process of learning cello.
      As for "derogatory" issues, none really save for the cello bridge and preamp needing work. That red electric cello review was owned by one of my students, whom eventually purchased a trade chinese cello, and sold the red one. But this happened after 18 months of cello lessons.

    • @CelloCoach
      @CelloCoach  Před 4 lety +2

      It's well-known, and universally learned, plus it is very easy to compare. Bach is the Gold Standard of Music, so why go anywhere else? If I show this in a concerto - like the Haydn D (uses the same logic) - how many of my active subs can play that piece? Plus, My most viewed video is "How to Play the Prelude" so it's showing people examples using this piece is perfectly on-brand.
