- In todays tutorial I speak about one part of the bow technique, how I use the right thumb for better bow changes hope its useful ! Probably this will work for either cellists or violinist/violists, just a little detail to keep in mind while practicing!
Music : Pablo Ferrández and Denis Kozhukhin joint album “ reflections “ check it out in your favorite music platform!

I love your cello so much..the tone is breathtaking.
Isn’t the cello, it’s Pablo Ferrandez 😍
@@ezequielcamacho5956I say it’s both

It seems like you bend the thumb when you want to emphasize a particular point in the phrase, to generate slightly more bow pressure when closer to the frog. The straight thumb has a great effect of continuing the prior phrase by avoiding too much pressure near the frog on the subsequent down-bow. Great lesson, thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much!! I've been struggling recently with deep smooth bow changes and this really helped!! 🤗
You are a great cellist Pablo
I am happy when watching your videos and get benefits from them
A mi cuando me enseñaban justamente mi profe me decia ¨tenes un legato algo raro¨, vio que hacia esto y entendio la onda. Nos pusimos a hablar y eso y llegamos a la conclusion de los que dicen que esa articulacion del pulgar tiene que quedarse en un mismo lugar son los cellistas que les enseñaron a usar hasta la ferrula del arco y hacer el legato combinando sonore y aliviando presion. Esta tecnica de pulgar lo que recontra permite es un legato hermoso en lineas movidas y cantabile en mi opinion, graciosamente si estuviera tocando vocalise usaria la otra tecnica. Es copado que haya mas cellistas hablando de estos detalles que honestamente hacen un make or break en muchas situaciones. Grande Pablo (Y)
Thank you for posting helpful videos. I am always looking forward to the day you can come and perform in Korea
Thanks so much! That is really helpful.
Gran video!!!
Interesante y de gran ayuda !!!Bravo!!!
Thank you so much for sharing videos and helping people to be great cellists like you❤
I hope you share an open practice video on haydn d major concerto ❤🙏
So precious. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the video! I love the feeling of playing with the thumb placed on the frog and have experimented a lot with it including few live shows. Love it for how it feels and sound when playing melodies, it’s like spreading butter and feeling the total resonance of the cello inside your hand. It has an almost sensual feeling and I love how it’s not just a copy paste from the violin technique, but I have a few issues with that hold that maybe someday you will cover in future videos:
Firstly keeping the hair flat at all times or at least being able to do so if necessary/wanted. Before I’d just roll the thumb inwards and bend my fingers and the stick would rotate. Can’t make this work with this Russian hold. I notice you elevate your wrist in order to get it flat, but I may be wrong. To me being able to maintain full hair even in lower dynamics is important and I was wondering what your take it on that.
Secondly, when playing more aerial bowing techniques like in a Bach suite mouvement or the like,the hand particularly the thumb feels tighter and gets tired faster, and I struggle to craft as much of a variety in tones.
Lastly, I really struggle to feel comfortable and powerful at the tip. At the frog it’s paradise and at the tip it’s hell. I notice you pronate and raise you elbow while strengthening your fingers. Again maybe I’m wrong.
It’s really fun to geek around with these thing and it’s nice to see someone at your level still experimenting and fine tuning small things. I’m too a very analytic person about playing and bowing has become an obsession over the years. Because when the bow feels good, everything else feels good!
Thanks again for sharing and looking forward to the next one:)
Cheers
Great as always ! I am so happy that you come in France for shostakovich concerto !!!
Hope to see you there !
Grasias！
Buenas tardes
Ayer asistí al concierto que diste en el Kursaal de Donostia. Magnífico, excelente... no sé que más decir. Tal vez mis conocimientos no sean muchos ya que llevo unos años estudiando chelo y dicho sea de paso he superado los 60, por lo cual mi nivel quedará justito el día que consiga algo presentable. Casualmente te encontré en You Tube y me encantas. Me hizo gran ilusión ver que ibas a actuar en mi ciudad y no dudé en ir a verte en directo. Continuaré viendo tus clases tutoriales que son magníficas. Enhorabuena de todo corazón.
Muchísimas gracias por asistir al concierto! Me alegro mucho que lo disfrutases, te deseo mucha suerte y felicidad con tu cello.
Un saludo
Although not practical for general playing, try bowing with just 2 fingers - your index finger on top and your thumb below the bow. This can give you a perfect transition even on an open string. The point is to be able to make the transition imperceptible to the ear - you have to watch to see when the direction changes. My teacher had this skill perfected.
Thank you for the wonderful new ideas!
Hi I am a big fan, I love your playing
Thank you Pablo, graciassss!!!
I would like to ask Pablo if he would agree that a new design for the Frog of the bow is needed. It should be possible to get engineers to study the use of the Frog and work with bow makers to do something different from what we have. I hope this does not shock you too much. Ideas from any cellist welcome.
Hola Pablo, tenes pensado venir a Argentina este año?
Great, thanks a lot.😊
Omg, that SOUND!
Thank you so much!
This is exactly how bow direction changes are supposed to sound.
Gracias Pablo
Muy bien explicado
Beautiful playing and excellent explanation. Which piece is that you played? Hugs from Brasil.
Interesantisimo , por favor mas videos en español 😊
Dear Pablo... es que... es increible, pero es que hoy he logrado por la primera vez desde 8 anyos un cambio bastante suave con lo del pulgar... muchissimas gracias por tu espirito y tu arte y tu pedagogia... !!

Hi :-) seems to be a fine cello bow! Could tell please who made it? Greetings from Hamburg
Gracias
Great videoooooo
🙌🏼
The primary thing I noticed is that you begin your downbow motion before you "finish" your upbow motion, which I found to be really helpful in my playing too, but I'm wondering about how to do the opposite (begin upbow before you finish downbow) because you have a lot less control at the tip.
Also, I noticed you're using the bowhold with your thumb in the traditional position as opposed to how you normally hold it. Was this just for demonstration purposes or are you trying it out?
I hold it same way as before! Might be a camera effect!
Is there anyone who knows what the song is?
What do you use to record these videos?
Pablo, I have a question!! Do I have to relax my thumb when I hold the bow??
🙌🏻🙌🏻
Pablo, I'm new to the cello, but you are my favorite player. Your tone and technique are just astonishing. But also... I was wondering if in your next video you'd say, "Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die." Grins!
What maker's bow are you using right now?
I see that is not a sartory bow you used to show us.
Great eye!! Will announce it soon! Will try to make a video about it!
Great! Your videos are always helpful! Also love your playing 😊
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
