- If you only have 10 minutes to practice, is it really worth it? Yes! Here's how to get the absolute most out of a short practice session for adult learners of the cello who are earlier on in their journeys. Play along with me as we work on tone and sound production with these effective exercises.

This is wonderful and helpful and increases my practice time. But a little discouraging, because you never comment on HOW to get that beautiful sound. Maybe in a different video? Thanks!
"you wanna hear 🚨bwooaoooammmmmmm 🚨 bwooaaaaaam"

Really love the idea of finding the favorite note and matching the quality of others! When you have a chance could you demonstrate the same string crossing exercise but with an upbow on the lower string and downbow on an higher one? Say upbow C and then crossed to downbow G. I find such crossings the hard to do smoothly and it would be great if I could see this demonstrated by you. Thank you as always!
Even though I’m am technically not an adult learner, I really enjoy your videos because they feel very encouraging.
That's wonderful to hear, thank you so much for you comment!
Thank you!!! This helped me a lot! Just having the focus on tone and quality, instead of scales and songs. My playing already sounds good and I feel like my practice was efficient.
Thank you for this routine!
What brand of strings and bow do you use? This is a great practice video for tone and bow work. Thank you.
His online course is outstanding! If you are looking for a great way to learn cello, sign up!
Thank you so much, Carrie! I really appreciate it!
your videos are amazing. Please dont stop!
Thank you so much!
Great lesson thanks!
Oh, just what I needed.
This sounds almost meditartve. A reminder to never rush practice!
Yes!
This is SO absolutely awesome 👌
Thanks so much!
Thanks for all the tips. I'll use your video as a quick-practice guide when I'm in a hurry, but it's also a great "intro" to a long practice session (I have holidays coming up! I'll experiment with sound, using your method.)
And I don't like my C natural (my fault, I can never get it perfectly in tune), but the G on the D string and the D on the A string sound beautiful on my cello.
Thanks so much! And I agree, it would work equally well as a warmup for the body and the ears before a longer practice session! If I hadn't picked the c natural as a starting point, the other two notes you mention would probably be my next picks!
Great advise. How did you make the sound of vibrato without doing a vibrato?
Thanks! I will try this tomorrow
Awesome!
Great content, really useful... sorry to criticize but your audio levels are really very low. Something to consider when you're editing next time.
Thanks so much! Yeah, I was having audio trouble but should be good to go now!
10 minutes?!? Sacrilegious.. but I’m listening..
