Modern cello vs. baroque cello 🎶

[@thesunrisechick]

The baroque cello just has more depth.. it sounds beautiful

[@jakefeingold1126]

I disagree, i think it sounds tinny to me, which would make sense given the shorter neck

[@hitmehardcaleb]

@@jakefeingold1126trueee

[@msruag]

it sounds more metallic and shallow imo

[@ravenecho2410]

yeah, i think half of it is miking tho. cellos normally dont sound bad or grating. the modern one sounded horrid

[@markopolo1271]

I dunno bout that one chief to me it sounds just all around bad

[@solomonheppner]

😊the baroque intensity range makes my body tingle....

[@hayi8957]

I think that's the scratchy chalkboard effect

[@elneutrino90]

I love how baroque instruments usually look brand new while modern instruments do all they can to look worn and interesting 😂😂😂

[@rohxnz]

tbf it said his cello was from the 18th century

[@athos401]

Because usually they're not much used, not as much as the "modern" ones

[@BethDiane]

That's because the "modern" ones are often older ones that have been altered for a modern setup. And the baroque ones are often in fact newly built, just as they would have been back in the day.

[@vesislavaofficial]

That was a great video, lovely to hear the sound of your baroque one , thank you Jeremy

[@codascheuer8426]

Interesting how you put the modern cello in baroque tuning. I would've liked to hear the difference between the two tunings

[@musicfriendly12]

I get what you mean, but that wouldn't be as good of a comparison like this, specially for all the non musicians listening

[@imauz1127]

what does "baroque tuning" mean? I'm a pianist and saxophonist so i never have to worry about tunings...

[@AlexGrom]

​@@imauz1127Baroque tuning is A=415 and modern is A=440. Which is weird, studied classical cello in 2 parts of the world half a cross the globe, everybody uses Baroque tuning...

[@mrlemonade281]

​@@imauz1127Baroque tuning is A=415Hz, basically, everything is a semitone down

[@acm-gs6bl]

i was wondering why it sounded off

[@genericdisplayname8297]

I didn’t think the cello bridge was that big on a modern cello, I always thought it was like the violin proportionally

[@_Gingi_Berri]

That baroque is so strong and deep!! Incredibly gorgeous sound

[@aimilios439]

It's a lot warmer! Always loved the baroque instruments. Sometimes projection and force is not everything; although quieter, baroque instruments had very rich harmonics.

[@vandalligraphy1300]

If anyone is interested, look up Phoebe Carrai’s interpretation of Bach’s Cello prelude no. 1. It’s a beautifully done on a Baroque cello. The tones are so warm you might have to “crack the window just a hair” as my dear mother used to say.

[@WilliamOrantes-w7s]

I love the fact that you played back, speicifally his suites for cello, because they wete basically meant to be performed as peices for boroque instruments (cellos)!!!🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤😊

[@ghoulzjuggin5929]

This video alone made me start listening to the Bach Cello Suite no.3 RELIGIOUSLY so thank you

[@AlexRiversMusic]

Baroque awesome

[@AlexTHEGreat627]

Bravo for keeping them both at A=418 hz. to keep the comparison equal 👏👏

[@naxizombies5326]

The Baroque cello scratches something in my mind lol the low note is so RICH

[@caninx]

i can definitely tell the baroque is louder than a regular cello

[@vojtechjanku2534]

I think the baroque way is also holding the bow more at the center, it gives you more control over the tone

[@chief2740]

The baroque cello also has catgut the original string before traditional metal ones were introduced!! They are especially great for when you are playing pieces from the classical era! It wouldve been amazing to see you compare haydn !

[@vrepitsa1083]

I really like how near the beginning of the piece theres the note b in that low octave. It sounds so cool on the baroque cello, it has this low powerful kinda sound

[@mookie7]

I love how you queue yourself… you sound amazing man, I could never dream of having perfect intonation like that.

[@pmjithink]

Bro not the subtle flex of “made in 1785” lol

[@michaelloew522]

Its interesting how he tuned both cellos down to baroque tuning

[@48956l]

no wonder it's modern, the old shit always tends to suck. Good stuff

[@AreineraYukivi]

The talent and instruments are both beautiful!🎉🎉🎉 God bless

[@Ronaldinhogaphreite2776]

Am I the only one who love the cello low notes for some reason???

[@Ronaldinhogaphreite2776]

It’s just so good

[@thephantomeagle2]

My mother was a violinist in orchestras in numerous states and 3 countries. I've been an huge classical music fan and always preferred Baroque instruments. it's a more pure sound with more texture.

[@GourSmith]

I actually was surprised to like the baroque one way more.

[@fatitankeris6327]

Bro resonates well... Listen to him.

[@xavier1964]

When you started on the modern cello I was not expecting baroque tuning lol

[@johnroblox5210]

It sounds like you tuned your modern cello in a baroque tuning

[@ana-ld8yr]

Omg the Baroque Cello was so deeepp 😍😍😍

[@panhead687]

The baroque sounds more hollow to me but both are great but that deep note the baroque is so satisfying

[@robertstafford5484]

Merci de nous montrer la différence. de Montréal

[@jaydos92]

The baroque cello sounds more suited to parts that need to stand out while the modern cello would fit into a broader melody better

[@djgrab1]

Like the modern cello! 💪

[@lihuseynli4640]

In the past, people played the cello on their feet, and there is no swollen part at the end of the cello because they used to play the cello on a stool, and the reason for the short fingerboard was probably to avoid bending too much towards the end.

[@Will67267]

You are a genius!

[@kcorbyerd6879]

Call me skeptical, but I'd love to hear the strings of the modern cello on the baroque, since if I am seeing correctly you've got gut strings on the baroque, which are naturally warmer and have more depth than steel strings

[@vivaldifromjapan5853]

モダンバイオリンとバロックバイオリンの響きの違いと同じように感じました❤

[@ArtemensiaK]

Whoa! The deep sound on the baroque one! But the modern has less of that "scratch" or whatever it is, I dislike. That's why I like the cello better than the violine. The violine squakes and scratches more, imo.

[@6atp]

its almost as if the baroque cello was made to play this piece !

[@emerster656]

No way bro has a cello from Washington’s presidency💀

[@Basketboy60]

Actually it’s before it which is even crazier 💀

[@JBuggyD]

I knew that the baroque period used different bows, but I didn't realise that the instruments themselves were so different

[@bobxooolulugod9283]

i played that piece at a recital recently!

[@confettiify]

They sound different even when you're just talking in front of them... the echo from your voice sounds louder and less tinny in the secone one!

[@alfredasleung]

I can hear your voice reverberating inside the cello

[@LMays-cu2hp]

Thank you for sharing.😊

[@gregorydedios9980]

I wish you had some better equipment to really hear the true sound between them, I don’t mean to be mean but the audio quality is not the best and it does not do the baroque cello justice

[@joanidt]

Could you make a video with the baroque cello playing the second part of beach’s suite, pls 🥹

[@maefukushima1231]

I love the baroque cello ❤

[@onetuliptree]

I like the sound of the baroque cello.

[@kokeskokeskokes]

Nice. Your distinguishing process however seems little... well... first, nearly no baroque bridges survived. You will find a modern bridge on all baroque cellos. Second, fingerboards dtto. Endpins? Same thing, accessory.

[@An-fi8is]

No idea about cellos but I really liked that deep thrum of the second one.

[@randomoneforstuff3696]

That's because of the warmth given by gut strings! (for reference, the modern one has steel strings which sound tinnier)

[@ethanweimer-kopf6907]

As a jealous, the first one is definitely more deep. It has a richer sound

[@phineas1117]

@@ethanweimer-kopf6907because in fact, the first instrument is older than the second and one

[@USMC--me3ig]

I like the classic

[@missmullinmusic]

Baroque cello has gut strings as opposed to steel strings, therefore the sound is much softer.

[@zzzut]

They should bring back the baroque cello. I can’t see what the modern cello has the baroque doesn’t have as far as sound quality is concerned.

[@warrior4christ777]

First one sounds best

[@jamesphan8164]

It's really odd how I find similarities to saxophones in the differences between these two. Modern saxes tend to run cleaner and sound refined with less issues in the sound. Vintage instruments have this richer sound with more harmonics but are a wee bit squirrely with intonation and sound production.

[@joshhayl7459]

🟦... All else be'n equal in circumstances & equipment settings,..then it seems to me that the Modern Cello has a Warmer, Fuller sound. ... The Baroque Cello Is Louder with a "thinner" more Strident upper mid-range, as well as a rather harsh coarseness to the low end. .... I Much prefer the Modern Cello.

[@AndrewGordonMacpherson]

Need to record it on a Baroque iPhone mic to really hear the difference.

[@eva4adam451]

I prefer the barock sound. But he is tuned a bit lower.

[@rileyyyyh]

if jazz musicians had to breath like that every time before the played a bar i would never play music again

[@alexbrumar4870]

the 17th century french cello is the best sounding

[@manelbass1]

The barroque Cello is great it has thiker sound, is it from the strings?

[@m.c.bond4288]

The baroque cello, unsurprisingly, has a much more pleasant quality of sound and resonance.

[@Zentao420]

Baroque cello all day. But I would want a base pin.

[@rlilac643]

I love baroque as a bias, but what strings were you using on the 1785? (I think it was that year).

[@Will140f]

Hard to appreciate the sound of either when you’re seem to have recorded the audio on an aluminum pie plate

[@mickeyd9369]

Sumptin not quite right with the modern cello. Bass bar? sound post? I thought so before the baroque played. Take it to your luthier? or sound set up changed between.

[@christopherjunkins]

ugh, the sound of that modern one... in comparison...

[@uwu-rm8lf]

Bach is my fav

[@makayla_702]

wait if there’s no endpin do you just hold the lower bout with your knees?? wouldn’t that make you cramp during long periods of time??

[@diegoneira9326]

beautiful. gotta either change mic or change room (you've got some mid-high frequency goin on in there - my guess is the room)

[@I_am_Screech]

Simon servidas body double

[@DaRoachDoggJr69]

If it ain’t baroque, don’t fix it

[@alucarded5728]

So cool

"This is my super sexy baroque cello" *** is what he meant 😌

[@riadechahbouni]

beautiful

[@jakubkrticka1040]

The baroque is fire

[@devyysk]

damn bro tuned his cello a whole half step down for a video

[@MiloMcCarthyMusic]

How tf are we meant to compare when they both sound like they were recorded on a lemon

[@DovahKiinActual]

That baroque tho

[@pauldeck4500]

Two modern cellos can sound as different.

[@Trentthetrombonist7]

Modern sounds better in general, but the other one has a better low register

[@brucestuff]

I'm stealing one 😂

[@esnevip]

Is the grunting and spasming needed?

[@GeometryDashIsAsc3nd1ng]

try it with baroque tuning

[@sayandutta9893]

The modern one sounds better to my layman ear

[@robynm9596]

My university has the same practice room walls, does yours have that extra switch next to the light switch? I can't figure out what it's for

[@jemsar2]

Is there a significant difference between technique for both?

[@BryanJRiolo]

I'm going for baroque!

[@jacqueskongolo3440]

baroques cello 😍

[@moochimartinez1588]

The baroque cello is more resonate. Very good, it was probably expensive huh?

[@clarkmike0723]

Cat gut strings used in baroque strings

[@pavlo1]

Am I the only one who hears an F# in the background while he is speaking? lmao

[@paolaciancetta5269]

are there more harmonics in baroque cello?

[@Evan-hm7tz]

Well this isnt a fair comparison. The mic quality of the modern cello , ot almost sounds like it has a low-pass filter on it, the mic quality has a very BAD quality about it. And i know its the mic because of the way it distorts, this isnt a fair comparison for the modern cello.

[@danfra4]

Are the whispers included with the cello?

[@ravennightmare6070]

You like the baroque one better because you expect it to sound better. If you didn't know which one is playing, you couldn't tell either. They both are nice.

[@mxcalibur018]

the baroque has much more bodi and resonance😊

[@mxcalibur018]

Body excuse me i'm spanish

[@donuttingtornado7628]

Do they come with the obnoxious head movement?😊
