De nada!

Absolutely love your videos !

[@Laoise202]

Brilliant tips as always!!!

[@IliaLaporevcellist]

Thank you! So kind of you!

[@brendamann6106]

Is there a video that teaches how to move from bridge to fingerboard to control the dynamics? Do you point the bow tip? I see it done by you and others - this also allows a better distribution of the bow instead of going slower or speeding up to get the increase or decrease in sound as is done in less advanced pieces. I assume both can be used as well as balance and fingers… but I think learning one way at a time is less confusing. I’m not learning this piece yet but trying to work on bow control. Thank you so much.

I just decided to learn this what a coincidence !!!

[@IliaLaporevcellist]

Coincidence indeed! You will have a great time learning this. This video excerpt comes from a longer course (90 min). You can find the link in description or pinned comment if you are interested! Enjoy Fauré, it’s gorgeous!

[@evangelinecello]

Thank you so so much for this!! I need to perform this soon, but I'm terrified of getting shakey bow at the pp and ppp parts, do you have any tips?

[@IliaLaporevcellist]

Thank you for watching and for your kind words! To answer quickly your question: it’s psychological, so first of all, don’t get terrified. I am not sure if I mention this in this video excerpt here. But what can help for control, is to play long bowings starting playling in forte and bit by bit you go into piano without changing much in the right arm. That helped me.

nice nice :)

Lol why do you have two copies of the 5 hour work week. Also can you make a right hand bow video? I really love your technique, and I am currently having problems with thumb placement and tension

[@IliaLaporevcellist]

Someone got distracted during class lol 🤣 Because when I was living in Brazil, I ordered one copy. Then we moved out to the Netherlands, and there I ordered another one (as I left my stuff here). And now I am back in Brazil, that’s why I have it twice 😂 About right hand bow video, I think I have some videos about the subject. But anyway, it is a good one to put on the list for future videos! Cheers!

@@IliaLaporevcellist Thanks for the response, and I always love the content you put out!

[@stevegebhart8388]

Since power and control are required to flow through legato passages, one must derive these goals through the basis of a three point stance wherein your power and control originate at each foot and the base of your spine. Your thoughts please.

[@amycollins2429]

Why do you use third finger to start with?

[@IliaLaporevcellist]

It feels better for me to vibrate and to emphasise the E-flat, that is the reason.

[@amycollins2429]

@@IliaLaporevcellist seems awkward but again whatever works best

[@IliaLaporevcellist]

@amycollins2429 That’s true!
