Blessed Assurance - cello solo
This is my version of Blessed Assurance, in the style of the Issacs, recorded on 7 Jul 2024. Sorry that the picture freezes sometimes...the equipment at my church was having some issues today. This is with my new Aubert french bridge, which has improved the sound of my A string. It is still not exactly what I want for sound, and will maybe try a new A string next.

      Good luck! I am still happy with mine. The varnish stinks for a week or so, but then no smell at all. Also, the varnish is a little soft and never really gets hard. Mine is 3.5 years old now and sounds better than when new (as expected). No cracks or seams opened, but I keep a humidifier near it in the winter.

    • @MelloCelloFello
      @MelloCelloFello Год назад

      Thanks. The key is to get into a small group and play together. 1) You cannot hide in a small group (unlike a big orchestra), so you a forced to learn your notes. 2) It is very enjoyable and encouraging to play with others. Just have fun, and the best of luck to you.

      It doesnt have to be I bought a cecilio 500 on amazon for about $450 dollars And to be honest its not great but it isnt poor either Obviously something that cheap should be used to learn on until you could get something better but even playing on something so cheap I've improved my playing and sound tremendously since day 1 Another option is alot of music stores may offer a rent to own program where you pay 50 to 75 per month for an instrument

    Thank you for making this video. My previous cello had a previous hidden repair and the luthier explained why it is not worth fixing, it is an old cello, yet not a good model cello. I am renting one and it seems so different. It is new. My old cello had a robust c string with a little buzz and my A string always seemed to be a little shrill-ish. The new rented cello has a very nice tone on the G string. I look forward to playing it as I have been busy at work. This may sound strange but this cello seems to have a different personality. Not better or worse - just a different feel. I previously played the violin as a kid and I have recently started playing music during 2020. I have changed instruments previously (even the violin) and I do not remember such individuality as per instrument. My 1st cello was gifted to me so I have never purchased a cello. I do not have a teacher I watch videos, I am on Suzuki Book 3 Cello. My vibrato seems to come naturally. I am pressured to play for family and friends and I lack confidence as my formal training was in violin and clarinet. I can not believe how much I love playing the cello. Eventually if Covid ends and I have time (I work 12 hour shifts and also part time (side-hustle) paralegal job, I hope to take a few lessons in person with a real teacher. I also loved my perfection pegs from my 1st cello, I live in a humid beach town and the pegs came in handy. I am nervous about purchasing a cello - thank you for making this video.

    • @MelloCelloFello
      @MelloCelloFello 2 года назад

      Cathy, yes every cello seems to have its own personality. A lot can depend on the strings being used too. If your A string is too shirll-ish, consider a Jargar A or a synthetic such as the D'Addario Pro-Arte. They both are known for a warmer sound. Another quick fix is to put a clothes peg sideways on the bridge, just below the A string. I highly recommend taking lessons from a teacher. If you are in the RTP NC area, I can recommend a couple. As for the nervousness, confidence comes from repeatedly playing for others...it does get (slightly) easier, the more you do it. Consider joining a quartet with people that are at a similar skill level to yours. It is fun, and it builds confidence. There are also cello conferences you can attend, like Cello Chill, where you will learn a ton of stuff on how to play better. Keep it up!
