I am playing this to my mum as she is dying because I couldn't bring my cello on the aeroplane to play it myself. Every now and again she comes to and recognizes a piece and smiles.
Thank you for making and taking the time to produce this video. I think my daughter enjoys getting to see ladies playing the cello and we are enjoying your videos together!
I'm crying a little listening to this. I played the cello in school but had to give my instrument back when I left high school as it was a council instrument loaned to me through the school. I really would love to pick it up again as it made me happy but they're expensive instruments and it's been over 10 years now, I've forgotten how to play, can't even read sheet music anymore.
It’s never too late to try again! I’m sure you remember more than you think. A lot of stores has a “rent-to-own” program you might want to look into as well. Let me know how else I can help! 😊🙌🏼🙌🏼
@@Cellomoji I really would like to learn again, it's just saving up for the instrument really and I have a holiday to save for first so might get that out the way then think about it.
I played cello in 6th n 7th today I went a store and rented a 1.8k cello for $50 a month relearning to read was the easy part sounding good was the hard part
That's so awesome! I'm glad I could help and let me know if there are other things that would be helpful to watch as well. Good luck on your cello journey!
I know how to read, but not good at listening. This video has help me a lot to understand the vocal language of music and my own cello. Thabk you so much. ❤
Only thing that could make this better is break up the songs into their own videos in a playlist so i can put single tracks on repeat so i dont have to press the time stamps. But this is the cleanest one with pianao accomplishment so thank you!
How exciting!! Good luck on her cello journey. Be sure to check out some of my Book 1 tutorials and definitely let me know if there are any questions I can answer.
Thank you for doing this video. I am starting on perpetual motion this week. I can keep up with you on your slow series at 60 beats. On this video what is your speed? thanks again!!
Hello! I'm so glad you are finding my slow series helpful! Good luck on Perpetual Motion. This video I'm about 112 set to the quarter note beat. Let me know if you have other questions.
@@shirleyglover3769 Do you have someone to help guide you through book 1? I am a teacher so this is part of my job. Let me know how I can help you! I know it can be frustrating, but remember everyone is on their own progress path and it isn't a race.
@@Cellomoji Thanks! I do have an in person teacher. He is very patient but I think it’s just me. I’m visually impaired so I more focus on my sound. In particular bowing straight and relaxing my bow arm has been a challenge. I practice in front of a mirror but my bow keeps sliding down to the bridge. Do you have any suggestions that might help me? I started 2 months ago and really don’t want to give up.
@@shirleyglover3769 Hang in there! You are at the start and that can be the toughest and (sometimes) slow going. As adults, we have a much harder time training our body to try new things too! When it comes to the bow, double-check your bow grip that all the fingers are feeling sticky and helping to guide the bow. Also try just taking shorter strokes. In the beginning, long bows are challenging. Think of strokes that are no wider than your palm. Also, try to get a little grittier with your bow. I have found if your bow is too fluffy on the string it can let the bow drift all over the place. If the sound is too crunchy then use a little bit more bow, but don't feel the need to be lighter. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help with!
@@Cellomoji I come to your recordings often for inspiration. I'm an older adult trying to learn the cello. I've been playing for a couple of months now and have worked my way through the Hal Leonard books and am now plowing my way through the suzuki books 1 and 2. I've been a brass player for 50 years and I decided to try something new. It is harder than I thought it would be.
I'm glad that I can give you inspiration! Suzuki definitely steps things up a bit from other method books. But just like anything~ the beginning is always a bit rough and then it gets easier. The biggest thing will be patience, since you already know music it can be a little tedious with beginner songs. The physical technique will be a bit slower process, but I'm sure you'll get there. You already know all about perseverance! :)

Wishing you and your mum well. Thank you for sharing my video with her. I hope it brings both of you some peace and happiness.💖
@@Cellomoji thank you . She just opened her eyes and said "this is so good" 😍

How did you record the cello as you played along with the piano? It sounds very good!
Thanks! I had the piano track feeding into my ears as I recorded. External mics are key.
Finding this very helpful learning the cello at 50!
