❤ Thank you once again. Great warm ups. Feuillard “Jr.” - great etudes! And thank you for your candor sharing warm up 5. This is a part of my life I need to improve and hearing how it helped your playing and practice is inspiring.

What is the recommended amount of time to complete this regimen of exercises?

[@jhamessonrodrigues4601]

Olá Iliaa, tudo bem?? Sou Brasileiro e admirador do seu trabalhoo, dicas e principalmente sua forma de transmitir o seu conhecimento👏🏻👏🏻 Mas infelizmente a tradução do KZbin para o português falha bastante e ñ consigo entender seus vídeos sobre dicas de estudos, exercícios, articulações etc... Seria uma honra um dia poder contemplar um vídeo seu em português🙏🏻🤝🏻 e na medida do possível vamos tentando entender e colocar em práticas suas dicas aqui! Parabéns, acredito q com esses vídeos está ajudando muitos violoncelistas👏🏻

[@thiagolennon7925]

Opa, amigo. Brazuca aqui também. Realmente, a didática dele é excelente. Bons estudos para todos nós.

[@amycollins2429]

Cossman? That's part of my practice routine whether I like it or not.

[@IliaLaporevcellist]

Cossman is the man! I also use him daily, but somehow he isn’t in my top 5, in the top 10 for sure! Next time I will mention good old Cossman ;)

[@alexfranciscocello]

This is sort of an advanced question, but what is the point of warming up ? What happens if you don't? I see you use Feuillard to warm up, is all this just a waste of time? Can't you just jump right into the piece you are working on and warm up by using a light bow and going slow, then let the bow pressure increase as well as tempo as the time goes by? My hands tend to cramp up, when playing something like the Prelude from 5th suite, my hands really hurt, so much I can't always make it through the entire piece, I feel I don't have hand muscle endurance. I don't know if I must warm up like you explain if it will work, gonna try it out!

[@the0therethan]

Im surprised it’s taken a year for anybody to reply, but the way I see it, and have been taught, there are 2 main reasons for warming up. The first one is because both practicing and playing are physical actions and can take a lot of energy and physical work. Certain types of warmups like finger agility are to get your body started moving, like how an athlete would stretch their muscles. The second main reason is so the player has a good way to isolate and focus solely on basic technique & fundamentals before starting a session. The second main reason is to use warmups as a way for the player to go through easy motions with every muscle except the focused group. Common exercises like this are open strings (focus on right hand), shifting exercises (focus on motion of the left arm while shifting), or moderately slow scales (can be versatile, player can shift focus on whatever is important like posture, tension, or either hand shape). There is a third secret reason that my current professor like to joke about but also holds some truth. “If you play all of your warmups, do all of the techniques and all of the scales, then you will have played every note on the cello. Now your repertoire will be so easy you’ve already played it, just with a random order” I may have rambled a bit and maybe some of this you’ve learned by now, but I hope this gives some good insight
