Here’s how to go from “crunchy and scratchy” sounds, to sounding “soft, smooth, and lush”!
Your sound is NOT random, not matter how much you might fight that statement(!).
It isn’t purely “just how your cello is.” Aaaaand it definitely isn’t destined to stay that way – it’s actually, definitely, very, FIXABLE.
If at any point you’ve ever thought to yourself, “I can play it… but it doesn’t sound how I want,…why does it sound like this??”
Then this little course is pretty much made for you. 7 days of simple exercises, which look into not just studies and exercises, but to notice what your mind AND your body are doing whilst you play.
Making a gorgeous sound on your cello is never just “move your bow like this and you’ll be good”. When you have a solid understanding and appreciation for what’s going on WHILE you play, you’ll have eliminated most of the battle immediately.
Each day in this mini course addresses the following:
Day 1: LISTEN FIRST
Day 2: SLOW IS BEAUTIFUL!
Day 3: BOW WEIGHT AWARENESS
Day 4: CONTACT POINT MAGIC
Day 5: RELAX THE LEFT HAND
Day 6: DYNAMICS ADD DEPTH
day 7: YOUR SOUND RITUAL
You’ll then get a round-up of course with some “Next Steps” to see how you can take things further in your own studies.
Of course then if you still need more support, you’re welcome to enquire about cello lessons and cello performance coaching!
