  • Although cellists mostly read in Bass Clef, we are quite often expected to read in Treble Clef as well. It might seem challenging at first, but it just takes a little time and practice. Hopefully this video can help you start the process of learning how to read in Treble Clef. Although it is geared mostly for cellists, this video can help any musician no matter which instrument they play.

    Thanks very much for this Sarah. It helped me a great deal. I learned the Swan by ear but I am trying to learn the Elgar cello concerto at the moment and I don't really read music. I have most of the first page up to the big run up scale and most of the second page but the clefs where a mystery to me. You have given me what I needed I just have to get it into my head. Again many thanks.

    omg, thank you so much!
    my teacher gave me a thumb scale in treble clef and we ran out of time so I was unable to figure out what was a whole step and what was a half step. I was freaking out because i get really stressed about not understanding somethine I am expected to know. thank you!

    The trumpet plays on the treble clef and the trombone on the F clef. So, the second finger on the A string is the middle C on the cello. Playing the treble clef on the cello is so different from the guitar. I was Expecting a similar pattern. jejejeje

    Is there a way of playing violin music on the cello in a different key... So u have the same open strings? So u read what's written for violin in treble and then u play ur cello like it's a violin? Does anyone know?

    • @PokeCrafterMax
      @PokeCrafterMax 5 лет назад +1

      I mean, you could tune up your strings but you’d need incredible strings so they dont snap. You’d also be playing an octave lower. Realistically you would just have to play in thumb position to play violin music, and with practice it’s not that bad.

    • @dunterriker3301
      @dunterriker3301 4 года назад +2

      I wouldn’t suggest playing the music in a different key because I think that defeats the point of transcribing it because it will sound completely off. So just transcribe it down as many octaves as possible, usually one, but if you can get away with lower, go lower. But there isn’t any good way to avoid playing really high. Just practice the high positions and you’ll get used to it eventually.

    so joy...question? understand base ciff but going to middle c and up for trible. that really began at b on the A string second finger. but the trible is all on the A string going down the finger board using thumb postion to get it. correct?

    • @dunterriker3301
      @dunterriker3301 4 года назад

      Terry Vallette yes, exactly that. But you can also play in higher positions on the other three strings to save yourself some shifting.

    You spelling out the lines made me realise that treble clef is two fifths above tenor clef. For me it seems like the easiest way to learn treble clef is to read the bottom, middle, and top lines as hypothetical E, B, and F(#) strings. You obviously need to account for how the key signature affects the fingerings for that though.
