…Three notes establish a gut-wrenching sadness. There’s a slight tremor on the fingerboard, the bow a harbinger of difficult news. The cello, wavering at first touch, recovers its equilibrium and reports a painful chronicle. Nothing fills the empty space. A tiny prayer is uttered…

Description surprisingly reminiscent of many crazed scribblings that litter my bwv 1008 score!

I watched the preview of the video without any sound and knew immediately which prelude you were playing! Its one of my favorites

It is an amazing prelude, specially if you know the background of it so you can dive deeper. It is so cold, lonely, and these cries at the end…goosebumping!

Adore this piece. Such therapy to play it because it begins sadly and ends with joy.

What hz is your cello tuned in?:3

Here is some information about the cello size for you age will play a major role in helping you determine the best cello size for your needs. The smallest cello size (⅒) is appropriate for children ages four to six years. For older children, add a year or so to the baseline age for each subsequent size of the cello: the ⅛ cello is appropriate for children ages five to seven, the ¼ for kids ages seven to nine, and so on. Female cellists sometimes use the smaller adult size (⅞), ideal for teenagers 15 years old and up, while the 4/4 works for most adults. Arm length: Adults and children alike can use their arm length to determine the best cello size. To make this simple measurement, extend your left arm, so it’s straight with no bends or over-extension. Next, measure from your neck to either your wrist or palm, or from your left shoulder to the tip of the middle finger; a measurement of 24 inches or more would require a 4/4 or full-size cello, while 16 inches or more is acceptable for the ⅒ cello size. Finger span: To use the span or distance between your fingers as a cello size guide, spread your fingers in a splayed but comfortable position. A six-inch span from the index finger to the little or “pinky” finger is the right distance for a full-size cello, while three inches is acceptable for the ⅒ cello. Height: You can also use your height for an accurate cello measurement. A height of three feet is appropriate for the ⅒, while five feet or taller would require a full-size cello. If you happen to fall between sizes, it’s best to choose a smaller cello. Seat: You can get an accurate cello measurement from a seated position if you cannot try the other physical measurements. To use the seat method, sit in a straight-backed chair with your feet on the floor and knees at a 90-degree angle. Set the cello’s endpin to 12 inches in length, and hold the cello as you would if playing it: your sternum, or breast bone, should rest against the upper rim of the cello, and the lower bout corner of the instrument should touch your left knee. The cello’s neck should be close to your left shoulder, while the tuning peg for the C string-the thickest string-should be near your left ear. Your left hand should also be able to use the fingerboard with ease. If this position and height feel comfortable, then the cello is the right size.
