The cello has the widest range of sound of any string instrument, and its lyricism and depth of tone have captivated audiences for centuries. It also stands out as a physically relaxing instrument to play, as the proper position for playing the cello is a natural cradling pose. We'll begin by understanding the cello, learning how to handle the instrument, and experiencing its depths, tones, and wide capabilities. Using a selection of introductory pieces, we will learn basic fingerings and how to use the bow. We'll progress toward playing duets and finished works that demonstrate the cello's versatility. Please bring a cello, bow, and rock stop to the first class. Sheet music will be provided.
