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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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

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

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

Oh! Big thumbs up! this is great in terms of breaking it down. thanks for your time and patience. That helped a lot to this old newbie.

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.

You are a wonderful teacher! Thank you Wendy! ❤

Great to watch and listen to, as always.

You are a wonderful teacher Wendy! Thank you

Great teacher! Thank you for this

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!

thanks.

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!? 😩😉

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?

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. 😉

Thank you very much!!! For some reason, my teacher doesnt want to tecah me "the swan" .... He says I am not ready... But I am 53 and I want to play it... Even if I dont do it perfect ( I need to)... Your kiss at the end of the video got right to my lips! Took me to the moon!!! :)

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.
