I am a middle and high school orchestra teacher. I forwarded your lesson immediately to my cello students. Since I teach four instruments, I don't have the opportunity to teach as in depth as I would like. This video is an answer to a prayer. Thank you!

Interesting, but you should not touch the bow hair so much otherwise it gets greasy ...

Awesome! As a beginning cellist, the movement of the fingers, wrist, and elbow is so hard to understand. Although I’ve watched many cellists play, and I’m aware of the change in their fingers/hand from upbow to downbow, I’ve never been able to replicate this movement at home. The details you provide about the positions/roles of each finger, the flexibility of the wrist, and the movement from the elbow are so helpful-and you can be sure I will be doing pinkie pushups and spiders later on today!

Great Masterclass! Thanks!

[@kanubeenderman]

"don't just warm up with coffee" - this will certainly be a change for me

[@naomimargolis706]

That was great! For the next bow masterclass, could you focus on a spiccato stroke? Thanks!

johanes: happy to see your smiling faces this morning!!

Als (erwachsener) Anfänger bin ich ausgesprochen dankbar für dieses Video. Mein Lehrer ist klasse, aber darauf haben wir bisher wenig wert gelegt. Mir ist das Glück als Kind nicht vergönnt gewesen, Cello spielen zu lernen. Das hole ich jetzt nach. Ich würde am liebsten nichts Anderes mehr machen :D

I am a pianist who would have loved to learn to play the cello and found this lesson fascinating. Thanks!

[@jassonrossos1367]

Really helpful video, could you please talk about sautille next time and especially string crossing while keeping the bow going?

[@AliciaGomar]

Oh great! My problem is as you said i forget to have an elbow joint 😅 thanks for sharing all this gym tips to keep our body safe.

[@viviennefenwick2833]

Fabulous clear examples of many aspects of bowing. My teacher explained this to me and your lesson has made it even clearer. I love the exercises…thank you
