- If you need to learn how to play cello with vibrato, this video tutorial is for you. I will explain in simple language what vibrato is, why to use it and how to play with vibrato by introducing several easy exercises. This cello lesson for adult beginners will give you the basic knowledge to start playing with vibrato without making many beginner's mistakes, which will be hard to get rid of in the future. This cello lesson and easy exercises will be helpful for you if you are learning how to play cello on your own, or even is you have a cello teacher to work with. We will start by describing what vibrato is. Vibrato is a musical effect obtained by slightly changing the pitch of notes while playing them. This can be done by using your left hand to move up and down on the fingerboard. The effect created is a beautiful and expressive sound.

Thank you for sharing this! I admire your patient teaching style and you are very good at explaining the key details and why they are necessary. My vibrato has been for the longest time like those Wile E Coyote Looney Tunes cartoons when he walks off the cliff and the moment he notices that he is walking in air, just then that’s when he falls to the ground. When I started to slow everything down and just be there for a bit I’ve recently found that I can maintain the vibrato motion for more than ten seconds and it feels like such an achievement! Thanks again for reminding us just how important patience and the little by little approach is when playing the cello. I feel like without slow and steady progress we could all fall into a very difficult place of correcting everything that was learned without the basic slow and patient process. Sounds so easy, but hard to slow down as an adult learner sometimes
Thank you, Tom. You always find the way to write very special comments. I have several teachers in my student life, and I found in a hard way what the difference a patient and caring teacher makes to student’s development. This what I am trying to share with all my in person and Cellopedia students.
Vibrato makes a difference. It gives a soul to the note! ❤
Finally I have understood il vibrato! To play It will be a matter of patience and training but It has all been explained in the clearest way. Wonderful Russian technique. Grazie
Thank you so much for kind words! Grazie mille!
Thank you so much for sharing great tips on how to do vibrato.
Now its time to work and play a lot.
Thanks.
You got the best attitude for success ❤️
Absolutely perfect explanation!
I'm a beginner to learn vibrato and found your lesson is so helpful! Your demonstration is so clear and easy to understand. Thank you so much!
Muchas gracias 💞
Gosh, learning vibrato takes much time. I've been trying to learn it for over a year now. I will try your techniques and try to be consistent with practicing. Thank you so much for sharing
This was so helpful! Thank you so much!
Super , merci beaucoup. Vous êtes formidable. .
Thank you
Muy buena explicación, gracias, me sirven muchísimo sus enseñanzas.
A very good demonstration on vibrato. I am a beginner and this has helped me tremendously! Thank you.
My best teacher❤
That was perfect
Thank you so much 🤩🙏🏻🌸
Bravo Maxim, I think your lesson is probably the most useful of all the videos I saw about vibrato. I am in the same: getting so many requests to make a RUclips video about vibrato 🤣 Difficult topic to explain and show that online! But you did it great! Will even send your video to a couple of my beginner students that want to learn about vibrato. Vibrato is something that will develop during the years. Again, wonderful lesson and content. Me as a professional cellist was listening from 0:00-16:57 to all of your advices! Well done! And I learned a thing or two! Not for me but for my teaching, so double thanks!
Thank you, Ilia. It is very special to hear these words from you, one of the best cellists, teachers and RUclipsrs. I am learning a lot from your videos too - the way you plan lessons, work on Feuillard etudes and orchestra excerpts, and inspire cello students from all over the world.
Thank you so much❤️
Another great lesson. Thank you so much for posting, so helpful. Two years in and I am just starting to consider vibrato. Love all your videos.
Wonderful! Vibrato is a game changer!
Finally! A vibrato lesson that explains exactly what to do!
This is how I explain it to my students. I am happy you find it helpful. All the best!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Thank you so much!
Glad it helped!
Your explanation was very helpful, thank you so much!
You're very welcome!
Thanks Maxim! Ive been playing on about 2 years now and as you would expect I am using vibrato but it needs a lot of work still. You have a very methodical and detailed way of teaching things that definitely works for me.
Thank you, Daniel. I am learning how to teach better. Your feedback is very encouraging for me. All the best to you in the New Year.
awesome and relaxing... thank you 💞 It is my first year or learning at 40+ yo, and I like a lot your way of teaching!
Welcome to Cellopedia! I am so happy to be of help!
Thank you😍. You rock as usual.
Thank you! We all do!
Thanks Máxime, it’s a really awesome explaining!!
Thank you, Julian. It’s very challenging to make a lesson to cellists of different levels who I never met. I am so happy that you find it interesting. We never stop learning!
Your explanation was very clear and easy to follow. I love it. Thank you very much.
Glad to hear that! All the best to you!
fabulous, thx
Glad you liked it!
So good and understanding explanations, 🙏🙏
Glad it was helpful!
Obrigado pela aula. Tenho estudado muito para fazer vibrato, visto outras formas, mas a sua e a mais eficiente. From Brazil
Oi! Fico muito feliz em saber que você achou a aula útil e eficiente, especialmente na parte do vibrato, que é uma técnica fundamental no cello. A prática constante é a chave, então continue estudando e logo você vai dominar essa técnica! Abraço direto do canal Cellopedia! 🎶🎻🇧🇷
I like so much how you teaches. It's slowly and clear. I'm beginning to play cello and your video was so good
My best wishes to you!
Thank you very much
You are very welcome!
Merci beaucoup! I’ll take my time and do as you teached us. Hopefully, maybe a nice vibrato is around the corner!
Je vous en prie! I am sure you will very nice vibrato - just be patient!
Thank you so much! This was very helpful! You earned a new sub :)
Glad it helped! Thank you for joining Cellopedia community!
Very Good
👍👍
Thank you Cellopedia! A pratical exercises.. Think it will be usefull.
Yes, we learn step by step and go far! All the best!
Great tips !!! The one talking about not spread the fingers from the one that's pressing the string in fundamental to avoid hand tension.
One of my concerns is not pressing the thumb against the cello neck.
Very good point! Thank you, Luis.
I really appreciate you, my online cello teacher, on the other side of the world🧡 Happy new year🌹
Happy new year!! I am so happy to be of help!
@@Cellopedia thank you very much❤🎵
Thank you, Maxim!
Love your tutorials!
Great! I will try to share more!
Saying “vibrato” with your accent sounds as good as the vibrato itself
Hahaha, I can learn to play cello, but not to get rid of my accent 😂
♥️
Подписка, конечно!
Спасибо ☺️
@@Cellopedia Что Вы думаете о том дяденьке на ссылке? Как он подает - это верно или не очень?
0:56
Thank you so much. The teaching very much helpful. May I know you teaching the 4th position and higher position vibrato?
Yes, I teach vibrato in all positions.
This is the best explanation for playing vibrato I've seen so far. Thank you very much...... Greetings from Germany 🎻
Some might say that this is establishing bad habits early on! I would love to see how you play legato vibrato scales this way...
You can definitely see how I play with vibrato. There are few more videos on my channel :)
@@Cellopedia I'm not sure that that was quite what I meant!
I was just wondering what the piece on the conclusion was playing.
One further question regarding the thumb: do you let the thumb at the same place (under the second finger) within one lower position playing vibrato or do you move it respectively under the vibrating finger?
Good question! I am not changing position of the thumb to use vibrato with different fingers.
Thank you!
WOW, 639 views in the first 10 hrs! Go Maxim, GO!!!
Thank you, Ernesto! I guess it turned out to be an interesting topic to talk about :)
Cкажите, пожалуйста, многие западные педагоги преподают вибрато движением туда-сюда как глиссандо. Вращение руки для вибрато- это русская школа, или всегда все-таки применимое действие?
Спасибо за вопрос! Я никогда не встречал в Европе или Америке педагога который бы учил vibrato как glissando. В этом видео я пытался объяснить что это был бы неправильный подход. По моему опыту русская школа и западная школа относятся к вибрато достаточно одинаково.
@@Cellopedia А в России давалось упражнение - рукой по грифу между струнами быстро возить? С другой стороны, тот же педагог предлагал "грозить пальчиком" (это вращающее движение). Сегодня наткнулась на американский мастеркласс по вибрато - и там движение предлагают именно туда-сюда (как бутылку встряхивать, не вращая). Мы просто экспериментаторы - сын скрипач да пианист виолончель добавил полтора года назад, со скрипичными привычками , поэтому я как мама тоже пытаюсь вникнуть во все, чтобы поймать, если не та моторика при занятиях дома.
@@Cellopedia Cейчас найду ссылочку для вас! Я понимаю, что вад подход правильный -просто вот смотрите...
@@Cellopedia Вот, у этого дяденьки на 1.27 поисывается движение, как трясти баночку пилюль вниз-вверх
ruclips.net/video/2GhMUZCbC14/видео.html
Наш педагог (профессор Ройал колледжа в Лондоне, выпускник Гнесинки) давал упражнение возить рукой между струнами быстро вниз-вверх . Но он же учил "грозить пальцем" (правильное движение).
whenever i vibrato, my fingers get so tense and it clenches a lot 😕😕
Вы ведь русский? А не могли бы Вы для русскоязычного контента тоже видео выпускать, у нас мало подобного. Хотя у Вас четкие инструкции и так понятно.
Спасибо! К сожалению, у меня очень мало просмотров из России. Выпуск каждого видео занимает 4-6 часов и это просто нереально найти время для видео на русском.
Is their a specific time when to do vibrato in a piece and if so, when?🫤🫤🫤
