Just for clarification, I'm not saying that non-cellists don't know that this is difficult. What I am saying is that there is a different type of respect for this when you actually play the cello.
Now you know why the average cello is bigger than the average window. I loved Victor Borge's response to the question: What is the difference between a violin and a viola? Victor: The viola burns longer.
That happens when you have a heart/brain/soul that appreciates awesome music, performed awesomely. I had never heard/seen this piece before and had tears in my eyes within seconds. Pity it is so short.
As a cellist, her control is amazing. This is extremely difficult for that speed and crossing to create that clear cut sound especially that high up the fingerboard. You can hear every note crisp and precise. Fantastic performer. My fingers would bleed
@@Franz_Liszt_KoreanI imagine its because of the rapid shifting to play multi double stops and rapid string crossing to play those and her intonation being spot on, let alone that fast running passage right after the double stops with such good bow articulation/control and intonation. And she got dynamics, musicality and everything. All that doesn't come together overnight. That's all I got. I don't know this lady but then I don't know a lot of them either. I am not a cello player. What a boss lady.
Well, this "part" of the concerto sounds really metal because it's based on the same "structures" on which later on metal has been based, such as "pedal pointing" parts at a very high speed (on a minor scale sequence) (usually played with palm muting on electric guitar on lower strings and anyway generally using open strings to make it more fluent and "human" to play).
@@erinbaggarly900 Exactly! The difference between Rock and Metal is the fact that the first is mainly based on blues "structures" instead the second is based on the fusion of both blues and classical music "structures".
I'm not a cellist, and I can see how difficult that is. I can see the way her fingers are moving, and how she's got whiplash. She goes hard. Very talented woman.
I have been watching shorts for a break and then I stumbled upon this comment.😐😐😐😑😑 Integration of f(x)dx=F(x) f(x)=chellist. F(x)=orchestra. Correct me if I am wrong. Enough calculas for today😂😂😂.
As a cellist, here's how can I understand how difficult this is :D -Intonation with doing chords is pain -Thumb position, we develope callouses on the side of our thumbs to play that high and causes pain -Staying in time with the orchestra and not just playing inside your own world is pain
@@user-zg1ww1jn7f I'd say it's a good mix of both. Even if you work crazy hard, I couldn't imagine someone with no talent at all ever reaching this level.
3 hours ago, I started washing the dishes. 2 hours later, the kitchen sink is overflowing with water, and the dishes are still dirty. And Im in total paralysis still watching this young lady. Simply mesmerizing.
Oh My Gosh...What an Amazingly talented Cellist, this lady is! So Intensely Beautiful! This, Actually, brought tears to my eyes! The Raw Talent, Energy & Passion she puts into this piece...I am awestruck (if that's even a Word)! Just So...Breathtakingly Beautiful 👏
Brilliant! out of this world! Mind blowing! She is absolutely stunning!, gorgeously full of amazing talent and it hasnt been without its hard work and endurance to be at the very top of her game! So proud of you and your successes! Madam❤❤❤
As a violinist, I pray 🙏🏾 that she is able to continue playing at this level. God healed me of painful carpal tunnel by not playing for some months in my middle school years. Playing my violin was my mental health therapy from 5th grade through college.
I am also a cellist but the right hand is not what impresses here, the amazing thing is the left hand. The precision in every sound the perfect transition between all the high positions is what she does just perfect
I worked as a tourmanager for an orchestra and went on tour with her and besides being an amazing cellist Sol Gabetta is also a very nice person! A win-win for the classical music-world ❤️
I'm a beekeeper and I know how truly difficult this is, especially the height of the bounce in the spiccato being controlled much the same as we apiarists control our Queen bee!
Saw a H.S. Senior play like this on graduation. Absolutely amazing. He got a full house standing ovation and came back out for a curtain call and did a small ovation. That was years ago, and I've not forgotten.
Yeah, as a cellist, I will say the thumb was ON THE MOVE, and that itself need to be practiced when it comes to its placement or placements and not having it rest and not having it hit the strings when crossing and accidentally pluck one while whipping your hand across the string board, amazing talent, especially when having a solo, even if for only about two minutes, 🎉😮
I'm a guitarist, but I definitely understand. I have nothing but the utmost respect for these musicians. It takes an insane amount of time and dedication to master an instrument like that.
No it doesn't. It's easy. You schlep around trying to learn the guitar like some kind of dope. Just pick up one of these chellies. I'm kidding if that wasn't obvious.
As a cleaner I know how difficult this really is. Her ability to bounce off string positions like that is pretty tough, her bow technique is remarkable and a stoccato that can cleans the floor like a pro. How the orchestra was able to keep up with her timing is truly spotless. She wiped the floor clean with that performance
This is such a wonderful woman. I saw her in a big concert hall, only with her cello and a piano. I was so far away and she seemed to be so tiny. But as she startet playing, she really touched my heard. And after the concert, she signed my card. She was so friendly and thankful for my compliments. A very special person. ❤
Have you ever tried L'Explorateur? It's a triple-cream soft cheese from France. It is the closest to cheese straight from Heaven that I've ever had the pleasure of snarfing.
I will keep that in mind. Thanks! I remember when I was in Brazil many years ago, a very common item for breakfast was pom(baguettes) with this crema cheese that tasted like heavenly butter. I've been searching for it too long. Can't find it here in the States. Anyways, thanks for recommendation!

Why is it difficult?
@@Franz_Liszt_KoreanI imagine its because of the rapid shifting to play multi double stops and rapid string crossing to play those and her intonation being spot on, let alone that fast running passage right after the double stops with such good bow articulation/control and intonation.

So do I, although I am not playing either at one or the other. I enjoy playing guitar.
