Today is a cello tutorial on how to play The Swan or Le cygne from The Carnival of the Animals by Saint Saens. I am giving some detailed tips and tricks so that you can have a smooth sound with the right type of vibrato, seamless shifts so that it sound continuous, and also exercises so that you have perfect bow control. The idea is that it sounds like the swan is gliding peacefully and smoothly on a lake.

I finally know why I couldn’t play the violin way back in school; I wasn’t breathing because I wanted to concentrate so much. You are a good teacher.

@belle9l 4 года назад

Cello ‘yoga’ breathing! 🤗 I find myself holding my breath A LOT! 😕 And My ‘cello face’ ends up being a cross between ‘grumpy cat’ and and absolutely terrified! 😝 Very instructive video. Thx!

@WendyLaw 4 года назад

LOL cello yoga breathing!! I LOVE IT! I might have to copy that idea! Hahaha

Beautiful. The Swan is the song I want to play for my grandchildren, who are now old enough to appreciate it. Plus, our last name is Swan. As an older adult returning to cello and lessons, the vibrato and dynamics are still a challenge. Your lesson is so helpful, as are all your tutorials. Thank you.

@jnsn_paint 2 года назад

good luck! I think that's beautiful. I started cello in january and my dad just started viola. vibrato is the trickiest part for me too.

@alexfer75 4 года назад

I'm no cellist but watching you teach cello makes me go back to music school and change instrument. We composers should watch more videos like yours.

true i start to follow Wendy in december 2020 one month after i baught my cello

@rfresa 3 года назад

It's nice to see how you do the fingerings! I lost the music I learned this from when I was a teenager, and recently started playing it again because my pianist brother and I wanted to play something together for fun.

@violetgilbert9618 4 года назад

What a wonderful lesson! I learned so.much from.you. Thank you for sharing your talent! I would like to know what type of instrument you are playing?

@PanicKernel2008 3 года назад

Yeah ! She's incredible.

@rfresa 3 года назад

It's called a Cello, short for Violoncello. Just kidding, I'm sure you're asking about specifics like the maker or country of origin. 😉

@bruceblue5297 3 года назад

Thank you so much for your video! I have been working on this piece for ages!

@lexigaede009 2 года назад

Where did you get the sheet music from? I asked my teacher if he could print this sheet music out for me and he says he still hasn't found a version for cello yet :( Does the one you got cost money, although i want a free version so he doesn't have to pay.

@nirodha7934 Год назад

Just search it in google

@ryleewhittaker8539 3 года назад

My notes the forth position starts on a D string. Why does yours starts on A?

@Gammhit.justadude Год назад

You could have got the mirror out of the back like literally i see the camera lol

@sallydixon8639 Год назад

The Swan is such a beautiful expressive cello piece of music! Your approach is so helpful!It is is so so challenging! Like a ballerina doing bourses. Thank you for your inspiration and help to play this beautiful piece! I liked the 180,000 cello best!The C string was a rich soft tone and the rest so full in tone!

@dotcarrigan3079 11 месяцев назад

This whole song is about the phrasing!!! I am swaying with you as you are teaching!

@TheBereangirl 2 года назад

Breathing is good. I try to remember to breathe when I'm practicing; it's amazing how your body automatically forfeits breathing when concentrating on learning the cello....WHY!? 😩😉

@carmenarcas513 3 года назад
