Always wanted to learn more about J.P Maintz since I saw a video of him playing Passacaglia but for two cellos ! Thank you Pablo for the wonderful episode. Best wishes from Dhaka ,Bangladesh.
Pablo, todos los "Talking cello" son increíbles. Qué cantidad de cosas súper valiosas comentáis que puede aprovechar cualquiera que quiera de verdad profundizar en el instrumento. Increíble de verdad. Me ha encantado escuchar esta charla repleta de datos, curiosidades, conceptos técnicos y musicales, y además muy entretenida gracias a vuestro sentido del humor. Muchas gracias a los dos!!!
As always, great video Pablo! In February I had the opportunity to hear this man at Cello Duello concert in Graz, it was fabulous, I was suprised how good you can be at cello techniques, it was so memorable and amazing concert!
This is amazingly good. Learned so much to apply to my novice playing. Gosh, Pablo, your effort in doing these virtual workshops/interviews are so good and getting better. I loved J. P.’s insight! Don’t stop! 🙏🏾😊✌🏾
Still in the process of watching but I wanted to say how well produced your videos are. They're incredibly clear and well lit, with great audio. On your end at least. It's clear you put a lot of work in. Edit: Also for a future talk I would love to see Zlatomir Fung. I know he's quite active online, and talks about learning regularly.
Feuillard Nr 16! :D Working on this right now....It's killing my fingertips. Great Talk, as always! I'm learning so much for improving on technique and attacking practice with the right mindset. Thank you
I've been loving the "talking cello" series; thanks for bringing it to us! Would you consider doing a video on things to look for before buying a new bow? :)
Always overjoyed to see a new instalment of this series! Even for me as a very new player there's always something I get out of it, be it concrete stuff to add to my practice or broader concepts. Thank you guys! :)
Love it. Thank you so much for those wonderful and helpful interviews. Q: what’s the edition of Bach suites that he mentioned he loved the most that published around 2000? Many thanks 🙏
Thank you for doing these wonderful videos! They inspire me to practice new ideas. Re: Shostakovich 2nd concerto, Alisa Weilerstein just played it with us in Seattle. Amazing work and incredible performance! Have fun!
Pablo, you have a belgian bridge and it looks like it stands up straight. I had one replaced because it was bowed over, and now the replacement is bowed over... how do you get a belgian bridge to stand up???
Hello, I love your videos, Thank you. But I could wish that you could intervju some baroque cellist, and talk about the difference between playing the baroque cello, difference. between gut and steel strings and more. I am myself retired from 35 years as cellist in the Norwegian opera, and I now only play baroque cello and love it. Kind regards and stay safe.
Very nice interview and fine suggestions. I would also urge viewing the Cello Academy videos of Harvey Shapiro, and also listen to some of his performances posted on RU-vid- e.g., the Rachmaninoff Sonata with Earl Wild, Schelomo with Leopold Stokowski, and the cello solo in the third movt. of the Brahms Second Piano concerto with Rubenstein and Krips. He was, in my humble estimation one of the very greatest cellist musicians and teachers of cello technique (as opposed to 'facility') for interpreting a specific piece and its stylistic underpinnings. He had a great command of sonority and the subtleties and nuances that derive from it. He was also on the one hand tough and blunt- but if you understood his motivation and intention- a delight- and on the other hand very caring of his students.
Hey- great video! To me the length of the endpin also depends on the kind of energy you have in you 😅 the more pressure/power the longer the endpin is my impression .. so to me it kind of depends on the day🙃
