Learning the Cello (w/ a Pro)

[@lemonsquish3333]

rob tries his hardest to not slap a cello

[@robscallon]

Haha I actually gave it a try, on mine of course, and I was too out of practice for it to sound very good. Here’s the slap cello video I was referencing kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpnFfGSroZKNhK8si=edYDtGsOYvelOMok

[@lemonsquish3333]

@@robscallon i love all of your old cello stuff, im just giving you a hard time

[@firedemon_5553]

​@@robscallonI think, he wasn't talking about the instrument

[@michaellafond9555]

You have to get the dead south to jamb with you. Look them up, you will know what I'm talking about.

[@aaaaaa2206]

He shouldn't slap Yanna, that would be mean.

[@c._nda]

I love how excited she is at every little improvement

[@MiasmicBlight]

As a good teacher should!

[@КириллЦветков-щ2ц]

gotta motivate somehow

[@FrankenSteinsGate]

This is exactly what I love to see on KZbin: someone who _loves_ what they do and cannot wait to share that thing with you, someone who gets so excited when you start getting into it too

[@trebmaster]

It's what the world needs right now - people who don't just come alive with their wholesome joyful energy but rejoice when their fire catches fire with others as well.

[@Carrot421911]

Rob learning new instruments and vibing with the people he learns from is such comfort food for my soul. He always finds the most charming people too, for these collabs. Yanna is great!

[@Amouroso]

The new FOO album got me in such a Scallon binge. Rewatching damn near the whole channel. Perfect timing for a new video with a great new guest. Thanks rob and the team for all the vids!

[@moopey1837]

I do that every year too.

[@Kchaann]

sick feist pfp

[@robscallon]

❤🙏

[@NosemanYT]

i LOVE this series and i love the cello especially, so to see this world collide in the best way possible made my great day even better!!! thank you so much rob

[@robscallon]

Thank you so much for being a patron and helping us to make it! :)

[@kaydenbush]

Yanna has such a warm personality and is so charismatic!

[@joshuasayles8792]

It's so cool to see people's faces light up a room when someone genuinely wants to hear and learn about their craft. Love these videos!

[@jacobherr6117]

I’ve been a cellist for years, it was my first instrument and although I prefer guitar now I still really appreciate it as an instrument, I’ve been waiting for this for years.

[@dforck42]

i need an entire metal cello album collab from you two

[@LzqxPC]

metal hip hop with guitar & cello is something I didnt know I needed until now

[@laeclorentzen6111]

Wow, great first lesson! You had really good sound right away. As a cellist I'm very impressed with your ability to pick things up so quickly

[@michaellafond9555]

REAL HUMAN CONNECTION! The world needs this!

[@suobset]

I love to see that purple Cello still existing. It's a Rob Scallon classic at this point.

[@sanyo_neezy]

Wish this was longer! Love Yanna's energy and the cello is also one of my fav instruments ever!! Still, great video :)

[@mundane_in_the_membrane]

rob always gets these amazingly talented people to show their instruments, when's he gonna pick me to show everybody how to suck at guitar???

[@Robbay363]

She seems so cool! The cello is such a beautiful instrument.

[@xliquidflames]

I have wanted to try cello ever since I first heard the cello quartet Apocalyptica doing Metallica covers on their cellos in the late 90s. They then went on to do a bunch of metal inspired and metal/classical mixed albums. They are so good. It sounds like she is doing a similar thing with hip hop and rap.

[@TheCadHD]

i was expecting sober - tool XD but it sounded nice anyways :3

[@miloshk11]

i forgot he grew up in chicago and so hearing him rap chief keep was a strange thing lmao

[@michaels5079]

It never fails to make me smile watching people come together to share a passion that they love.

[@tyblu7667]

She seems like such an awesome person to just hang out with. Great video!

[@endrankluvsda4loko172]

So incredibly talented! I used to play the Cello back in middle school and really wish I would have stuck with it. I always loved it. Thank you for sharing!

[@CelestialMashups]

She plays beautifully ❤ When I was a young child I wanted to play the Cello though never did…. I play guitar and piano now

[@besthobbit]

Never too late to start 😊

[@CelestialMashups]

@besthobbit So true. Though I don’t have interest. I can barely play the instruments I have hence why I create “remixes” with more to come.

[@jacobwinter4196]

got so excited to see a new instrument learning video !

[@dmoli2811]

around the 5 min mark, Rob starts playin similar to his 30 min of bass video from years back. brought a wave of nostalgia when i used to fall asleep at night to it

[@jeremiahcowling3837]

I grew up in a wind band setting as the only string player on upright bass, so I have very little personal cello experience. I’m subbing for a banjo player for a theater production right now and it surprised me how much low end the cello had, truly a versatile instrument. Also, maybe now Rob can get another cello endorsement and play cello at NAMM again, who knows

[@sirhcsuiris]

Cello is one of my favorite instruments and Yanna is at one with it. Such a great video.

[@asherbeal8357]

That was so fun! Thank you Yanna and Rob.

[@crunchypuppy]

I love every single episode you do of this format but this was my absolute favorite so far! She has such a lovely energy and it was a blast to see you too interact. I hope she'll return for another video sometime I'd love to see you two again

[@hcsprung]

I love your videos! Your channel is one of THE most inspiring for musicians! THX!

[@Jess-qp3nv]

Loved this!! wish it was longer :)

[@mariotheguy123]

Love this series, keep up the great work

[@myersheggood]

Bought a cello not long ago and it's been hard to get comfortable with it. Very grateful for this video. Heres to hoping i can finally learn how to rosin a bow haha

[@deamon506]

Rob playing knuck if you buck was not on my bingo card

[@JumpingTuna]

She's so talented. Awesome.

[@sullytaire]

The epic realisation at the start that's how a cello should sound

[@IVWebMedia]

This video was too short, I want to see more heavy metal and cello! Like A7X 😊

[@Vorpal_Wit]

Man, Yanna just lights this video up, doesn't she. How fun.

[@orionvdv499]

wish this was longer with more history / info about the instrument like in the other videos but this was still very fun regardless!

[@jaysonexists6149]

this series will never not make me smile

[@gt100gleb]

0:55 ideal synchrony, seems that you have REAL connection xD

[@keepmewierd]

a classical cellist asking if you know "Knuck If You Buck" warms my southern heart

[@DatBoiAntix]

11:35 Rob: What does "Knuck if you buck" mean? CMA: 🤔 👀 Rob: 👀 CMA:👀 Rob: Ok-

[@claytonholder7468]

Never thought I would hear Rob Scallon play drill or trap. He made some perfect trap drums with his guitar

[@nicholasorr4230]

3:43 I knew I recognized that lighthouse, that’s the one next to the mansion that Evanston spent years trying to tear down. What a place.

[@MisterTingles]

cello is one of those goated instruments...just never fails to sound amazing.

[@bornofstardust5910]

PURPELLO IS BACK BABY

[@brodieknight772]

You guys made some awesome music together. That was sick, maybe the best one yet. I love you Rob

[@pedro_presotto]

Hey Rob, awsome video! Next time I think u should check out this brazillian instrument called "Viola Caipira" Its a open tunning weird acoustic 5 pair strings guitar used in our tradicional "country" music, I think you would love it.

[@bjwaters]

What? No Apocalyptica? 🤘😄 Seriously, what a fun video. I know you've shared that NAMM story before, but it's always fun to hear, as it is pretty wild.

[@TheStickCollector]

Now do this with a double bass

[@RudeMyDude]

this was a really fun one

[@eggsbenedict231]

Would love to see one of these videos but with Rob learning harsh vocals from a metal singer!

[@pietje32]

Love that you're still doing these! I asked before, but can the Chapman Stick be put on the list? I think you'll rock on that thing :)

[@FrankDaBank25]

0:55 That synchronized laugh doe

[@HendersonGuitar]

Please keep this series going !! We need a Mandolin Episode, Ukulele Episode, Bagpipe Episode - so much scope!

[@UkuleleSioni]

Recorder Episode

[@Cornan1980]

Some day I want Rob to gather a bunch of the people he's done these "learning to play X" videos with and put together the weirdest fucking band and make some songs. Get the accordion guy, banjo guy, talk box dude, cello lady, and the glass bowls organ man together and make something WEIRD.

[@cartermartorello2582]

Started playing because of ya:) Great interview fun vibe I git the bell on! Its so funny because i really did start learning from rob and getting obsessed on my own so i relate hella to having a fr music teacher Clown on me for getting as far as i have without knowing the basics

[@frogface1828]

bro never thought id see rob scallon sing hate being sober

[@amyl.9477]

congrats to the new sponsor ☺

[@jacobbalensiefer3846]

These interviews always put me in a good mood. I’m going to keep asking you to check out claw hammer banjo, you’ll really like it.

[@bean9575]

Love you Rob, you are a gift to KZbin brother

[@AdamMiller-m2h]

I really enjoyed this

[@BenAck912]

5:00 This sounds like a cartoon sneaking sound effect. 😂

[@Carbon2861996]

It probably is how they actually did it :D

[@steamer2k319]

Sounds great! Looking forward to some Scallon / Sonic Boom / 1ofO cello tracks 🎻!

[@hkandm4s23]

Aww his intuitive attempt at vibrato was so cute. Lol

[@ClicStudio]

I would’ve taken more of this that was FUN

[@FatherofEunice]

This was so sweet!❤

[@arvincharles]

I guess I have to watch more Bulls games to try to catch her halftime show. My current favorite is still Scooby the chihuahua.

[@CircLearnsMusic]

Hey Rob thanks for your multifaceted musical interest, and your willingness to try new instruments! There is a deck of cards called the infinite songbook that inspires people to learn the five most common instruments and to think of music theory in a unique way…you might really love it. In other modes of the “game” it is used to provide a staring point for writing your own songs. I am aware of you collaborating with Andrew Yang and your ability to pull songs out of the ether, and to Jam…I really think you would like the infinite songbook!

[@ifer1280]

Nice!

[@trebmaster]

I feel like they could do some Opeth-y kind of intro together and it would slap so good.

[@musicmore5169]

OMG beautiful, music is feeling ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉💯💯❤️❤️🔥🔥🎸🎸🧬🧬🤘🤘

[@emmajeane]

didnt expect a chief keef name drop within the first 1.5 minutes

[@legoobi-wankenobi3080]

Hell yeah

[@mral6809]

Love me some cello.

[@VincentiusTheSecond]

Damn she's good!

[@Benobot99]

Awesome

[@FizzyK-45]

I always love learning about new instruments, and I'll be honest, I always thought that Cello is way cooler than Violin. 😅

[@franconiro9392]

In today's episode of Rob Amazing a Pro With His Natural Ability to Learn Their Instrument: The Cello

[@besthobbit]

Dang i gotta pick up my cello again.

[@shellbournian]

"your percussive skills are really really good!" yeahhhhh the 2010's certainly had a style lol

[@kalashio]

NEW SCOB RALLON VIDEO HELL YEAHHHHH

[@besthobbit]

That's how i feel when i hear a cello too.

[@ArtursZalitis]

I need you to ask every next pro ''whats the smoke on the water equivalent on their instrument?'' if there is one

[@baz8526]

have you ever thought/tried to make a video with The Piano Guys, they are super talinted and passionate about music

[@13StJimmy]

“Top it on the side… CHELLO”

[@hedlund]

Damn cellos, man. Stupidly beautiful.

[@DanielOliveiraViolao]

Noice!

[@TheCoBBus]

First song that a beginner should play on a cello ? What!?

[@TheCoBBus]

Wait, i must say that this series has been one of the best, but… where was the learning in this ?? Bowing and vibrato ? Thats it ?

[@liamsellers9268]

You should learn the triangle next (Difficulty: IMPOSSIBLE)

[@dolgolae]

Oh god that bow hair 😂

[@clementinelives]

She so fucking real for that Cheif Keef mention

[@clementinelives]

KNUCK IF YOU BUCK??? nah she’s too real

[@tylerhunt5578]

He should use a cello next FoO!!!!

[@jonjayb]

I want a Cello so bad... but damn they are expensive

[@ZethKeeper]

Cool song with a cello in it: Deine Lakaien: Gone.

[@StarQueenEstrella]

Copyright notwithstanding, I’m a little surprised neither of them went for the theme song to Game of Thrones. (I wanna say the show’s composer, Ramin Djawadi, is also a cellist.)

[@imJusta6stringguy]

You gotta teach her metal now.

[@MW-bv3wu]

I'm stuck in the dream of Dolly returning Rob's call one of these days...
