In middle school i’ll play the cello.❤🎉
Hi Wendy, don't know if you will get to see this. I was watching this video with you playing the 300 year old cello, my son, who is a typical 8 year old boy, was watching T.V. and playing video games (keeping busy during this lockdown) it got to the part where you started playing and my son paused everything and came over to me, "who and what is that Dad" he asked...I told him it was a cellist called Wendy Law who is playing a 300 year old cello, he then said "That is so beautiful, its making me cry happy tears inside". Just thought you would like to know that. Thanks Wendy, it gave me the chills too. Lots of love from Nova Scotia, Canada
Awww Paul thank you so much for sharing this with me. It really means a great deal. This is why I do what I do, to lift and move the human spirit. Thank you so much! 🙏🏼🎶❤️
You've got yourself a 'cellist there!! Good age to start too!
Paul, what a beautiful story! It made me cry happy tears on the outside! (I cry a lot, no worries) From Alberta Canada :)
It really makes me cry too!!! I dont know what feeling is this. Why am i crying everytime shes playing cello 😭😭😭
Your son was experiencing “frisson” a highly sensitive and emotional feeling when listening to music. He can already appreciate the beauty and power of music. Well done!
If this is that old, it may be made with wood grown during the "mini ice age" in Europe. Back then the wood was denser because of slower growth and it affected the resonance of instruments.
The old cello has a beautiful resonant voice and, apparently, enjoys communicating with you-thank you for letting me listen in.
🙏🏼☺️
That is one incredible cello. The cello simply pulls emotion out of the air with every note. That is better than a million dollar cello.
wait, it probably is with a mill right? 😜
I was going to say the same thing :-)
It’s probably $1 trillion
I loved the explanation as to how the heavier bow added value to the cello. Additionally, this cello actually sounded much better in my opinion compared to the million dollar cello you showed us in a previous video.
I agree 100% and it sounded like the history of the cello was speaking from the past in the present. I got chills up and down my back; three different times while listening to Wendy play.
I agree. There is something special about the sound of older instruments, this one took my breath away. I know in guitars, they say the finish and the glues they used make a difference as well as the wood. And of course in the case of a hand made instrument, so does the person that created it. Very special cello and a special arstist too.
The resonance on this Cello is amazing and stunningly good! Not a surprise! Beautiful tone quality! The overtones are absolutely lovely! Very nice! I'm a fan!
Exactly, it sounds amazing and I'm telling the hi fi nuts to watch this for a audiophile test. I made my own speakers with radical acoustic stuff (I'll never go back to normal speakers). It's a 4" full range driver and 10" woofer, but acoustics are different (see my ch). I have been developing them for nearly a year and got to the stage where they continually blow me away (like hearing them the first time) and I admit that this video did make me get a bit misty. lol
Omg this cello sound even better than 1 million price
I agree
agreed!
Agree 100% I wish she also played the Bach Prelude from the 1st cello suite .
that's for damn sure!
ya'll need to get your ears checked. That Million dollar Cello sounds the best
What a warm sound! It almost tells you an intresting story everytime its played.
I've just watched her comparison video of three cellos (which I adored), and the resonance and timbre of this German one is so remarkable.
Ohhh, that cello sounds so rich and provocative. Really appreciated your discussion of the Du Pre bow. Thank you!
Very rich, clear sound without the noise at all. Perfect.
Wow just watched the million dollar cello video and now this and my jaw dropped at the sound of this beautiful instrument. The history behind it has to be great and you just added to it. Excellent!
HOLY MACKEREL!! The trio of you, that bow, and the cello.. It's almost like a wind instrument.. soooooo smooth.
Euclid AllGloryToTheLogLady Except much better than a wind instrument ;)
garden man raboninco.com/23391499/garden-man
You can definitely tell its been played numerous amounts of times seeing how resonant, clear, and loud it naturally is!
I did not know of Jaqueline du Pre. I looked up her name a learned about because of you mentioning her. What a talented lady with much spirit. I watched an historical tribute to her and listened to some her work. What an artist she was. Thank you for sharing.
Nice Bach's sarabande, it sounds amazing on that old cello, thanks for the sharing.
Sounds so smooth,and beautiful!
What comes across so evidently is your reverence and respect for the instrument maker as well as the instrument itself. It’s as though the instrument is talking to you and when you play it, it comes to life. Great to see. Thanks
Awww I appreciate it. Thanks. 😊
It's wonderful to hear you play and talk about that perfect instrument!
Hey Wendy, I decided a few weeks ago this fall I will start taking cello lessons at age 41. So I'm devouring cello vids on TH-cam and today I discovered your channel, I love it! Can't wait to get started. So inspiring!
Exceptionally beautiful sounding cello!
Stunning sound! Even just rattling around the C scale sounds amazing with that bow!
Sounds incredible! Wonderful!
You are inspiring me to get my cello out. I admired J Du Pres so much back in the day and I'm so enjoying your videos!
Simply beautifull!!! Thank you!!
Amazing clarity, resonance, and crisp sound of the 300 - year old cello!
I'm about to start cello after 4 years of playing the viola, watching this video makes me even more excited because of how good the cello sounds. It just reminds me of why the cello is my favorite instrument.
Wonderful! Enjoy the cello!
The sound of the cello is beautifully singing. Thanks for this video.
Wendy you are so right talking about that amazing instrument, I am also endlessly fascinated by old instruments. Who made them? How did they make them? From what materials? Whose hands has that instrument passed through? What wonderful history caused those marks and patina? Where has it travelled? Where has it been played and to whom? How much of the instrument and finish is original? Etc.
When I read about or watch clips of virtuosos like yourself I always long to know everything about the unique instrument being played.
You are so lovely with such a pleasant engaging personality, and your skill and artistry seems so effortless!
Thank you so much for posting and sharing your fun tour of London!
The sound is so beautiful it almost brought me to tears.
Such a beautiful and deep sound! Thank you so much for sharing
What a strikingly powerful combination of the antique instrument with the heavier bow! The music seemed amplified & just hit straight in my heart!Thanks for the story behind it too! Also nice to see London streets where I lived for 15 years. Missing London so much!
Thank you so much for this video. It just moves me so deeply.😊
It's like the red violin, its magical! And it sounds incredible 😍
I love that movie 🎥❤️
OMG this roars! 😮 Beautiful beautiful sound. ❤❤❤
I love your videos, thank you for making classical music so accessible and unpretentious!
Aww thank you! You made my day!! 🙏🏼
What a beautiful instrument with an incredible, full sound!
When you started playing I audibly laughed. Such a beautiful, warm sound my gosh. I can only imagine how it sounds in person.
I was not expecting that!
That sound is gorgeous.
Thank you! 🙏🏼😊
This Cello has an excellent sound and of course you play it very beautifully!
Such a gorgeous instrument! I never tire of listening to it! I played violin all through high school, but I secretly coveted the cello sounds; I AM glad, tho, I didn't have to lug it around!!! The violin was a lot easier in that regard!
so glad I found this channel! i'm a violin player but have always been a secret cello-phile. The lovely timbre of the low notes just give me goosebumps! hope to be binging on your vids for a while :)
Thank you so much and welcome to my channel! 🎻🙏🏼
Thanks for your explanations about the bow. Sometimes people only speak about the cello, the violin..
And the bow is so important
I love your commentary and the way you play that cello!
Thank you Asian giant 😁
your passion is great
Wow what a beautiful sound! ❤️ it.
I'm quarantined and I tried working while playing and just listening to this video... Impossible... I got goosebumps every other second... Wow wow wow... what are my ears listening too? This is too beautiful...
Again beautiful. The sound, your playing and you are all beautiful
So amazing!!
Such an exceptional sound...wow.
What a beaultifull voice has thís cello.
Yes it’s quite a beauty. Thanks Wilson! 🙏🏼
My sentiments too. It talks to you as you play.
@@charlesbartholomew2910 Haha yes. I do believe instruments embody a special spirit. Thank you.
WOOWWW.......AMAZING CELLO......
Very clear sound but still soft and strong character
Ahw, even the bass strings sound so good! Its often so that they are so difficult to play that they sound a bit strange. But here, it all sounds so amazing!
Why is the saying “aged like fine wine”?
We should start saying “aged like a fine string instrument”
Beautiful. I love that you have a appreciation for the graining of the wood and the craftsmanship!
Oh yes I do appreciate it very much. Thanks for watching
sweet but also loud and clear, Awesome !!!
Words cannot describe the beauty. Feel it!! Your playing is marvelous!! I share your videos with my private students who by the way are not Cello students. Just beautiful!!
Thank you so much Roger!
Wow this cello dose sound awesome and the way you played it 👍
Wow, such depth. Hard to hold back tears it is so beautiful.
😊🙏🏼
You are amazing!!
I love the way you start by showing us, in detail what you see. Not very many people will be able to see yet alone play a 300 year old instrument.
I’m exactly the same way about the appreciation of fine detail.
Thank you for being you.🌹
Know…help me learn to play the best instrument ever!! Lol
Wow it sounded great!
Hugs from Brazil! Love your channel
So interesting. Thank you, Wendy.
Wow the cello sounded like
A beautiful soul singing when you played. Blessings
I love the amazing sound of well played string instruments, like a violin or a cello. Your a very gifted young cellist, it's amazing to hear you play on this old cello.
Thank you! 🙏🏼☺️
Enjoy your showing us the cello and London town too!
Thank you so much!
What a nice rich and resonant sound that cello makes!
Nice to see such a treasure in your very capable hands. Hearing it in a concert hall surely would be a special treat.
you played that so beautifully
Whenever I listen to Wendy's music I can feel my blood pressure lower. It's so calming. What a treat.
WOWZERS!!! The sound was even more amazing than the $M Cello. Thank you for sharing about the wood, structure and bow. Fascinating!!!!
Dear Wendy,
It's wonderful to see you introduce the Dodds-Jacqueline Du Pre's cello-bow to the audience - thank you! I often heard a Dodd violin bow at the Austrian Lockenhaus Festival with Gidon Kremer, where he most recently played with it on his Amati violin, which, like this cello, resonated quite sonorously in the lower registers - but the violin bow seemed to me to be of a lightweight construction - at least in the hands of Gidon Kremer. Should you ever meet at Gidon Kremer, you can ask him about it - he is always helpful in such matters - this also applies to Mischa Maisky or David Geringas, who all enjoyed playing there in Lockenhaus/Austria in the eighties and nineties - Boris Pergamenschikow was always there gladly there, but he is no longer; I remember a piece with him that was called "Snow Maiden"; it must have been composed from Sofia Gubaldulina; I also recommend the compositions by Lera Auerbach to you; mostly these are commissioned works by Gidon Kremer for KAMERATA BALTICA; much of it was published by Sikorski in Hamburg. You should also know the compositions of Alfred Schnittke - if you don't already know them - everything from the circle of Gidon Kremer. - Wish you a Happy New Year, lots of energy, and some interesting videos for us on TH-cam. Best wishes from Vienna! Helmut
That was beautiful!
This sound is so amazing, the sound is so beautiful. It is different from another video that you have. The sound of this Cello is so unique and amazing. I don’t know how to say but this is amazing!
Yes it is a gorgeous sound
I like that she's such a fan of the instruments and their histories as well. Like yeah she is incredibly gifted in music but she is a fan of music as well.
Sounds great 👍
What a sound... ¡¡Bellissimo!!
Incroyable ! J'adore !
is it just me or does it sound incredible!? like supernaturally beautiful
Nice story.....passionate musician
Lovely instrument and musician
Keep playing beautiful music....great sound.....would love to hear Cello, Violin and Piano together......very soothing thank you!
The sound and resonance of the cello is great, mild melodic and very soothing. The first impression I had of the bow was aggressive, but masterfully handled to obtain beautiful sounds out of the cello. After your explanation I understood why.
Thank you very much Frank!🙏🏼
Beutiful cello.sounds wonderful. What string length is it?
The rezonnance is amazing, very powerfull and quite sweet at the same time!
I agree Charlotte. Thank you
Always makes me think of the Red Violin movie when I see old instruments as that film told the story of an old violin and for me anyway told it very well. My father is a a lutier although makes classical guitars but is currently in the process of making a violin so instruments have always fascinated me even though I don't play myself.
I love the red violin 🎻
great sound!
OMG, this cello sounds really amazing!! At 2:17 what was that very first note? When you played that 1st note it literally went to my core. Yeah it is pretty amazing to think that 300 years ago it was just part of a tree somewhere and now it's a beautiful instrument that allows someone to make beautiful music.
I believe it’s the g string (I’m a cellist) but it sounds super beautiful
Judging by the quality of the sound, it must be worth millions.
Amazing !
I love it. No electricity, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi required. Just pick it up and play. Beautiful and eternal.
What a beautiful sound 🎵
I'm " New " here. Thank you for sharing this BEAUTIFUL instrument with us ! :)
Beautiful tone!
This cello sounds beautiful.
Yes indeed
Always felt that way about wooden sail ships- put many trees together, add some brass and they get a soul of their own.
Also, with similar age katanas and spears you don't have to think- once you hold one or even come near one you just know and (feel) it's history. Did not think wood can be as conductive.
Sounds like a beautiful old instrument from a different era. Even on speakers. Thanks for sharing, nice clip.
Love listening to you. My cello crush.
😯😲😲😲😲😳😳😳Unbelievable sound...i know nothing about this instrument but having just listened to your 'Can you tell the difference between the million dollar cello'....this cello even surpasses the million dollar cello! Breathtaking...thank you...😀😃😀😃😀😃😀
Loved the Jacqueline's style performance.
iam like this cello !!!!!!! very old 300 ..wauuuuuu amazing
This is sublime
I wish I was that Cello being played by such beauty and talent!
