    Thanks for watching and for the suggestion! We'll add this to our video wish list. We recently featured clarinet alum Zach Manzi in our "Life After Juilliard" series (kzread.info/dash/bejne/lmt4mZqHkcTWqqg.html).

    Thank you for watching. The number of students admitted each year for cello can vary, but we have a large number of string students studying here and definitely encourage you to apply for either historical performance or our general music program. You can learn more at juilliard.edu/admissions.

    Our historical performance students play on period instruments in the style that would have been done in the baroque era. Cellists then did not use an end pin. If you look closely, you can see that he is holding the lower part of his cello with his legs.

    Baroque cellos actually do not use an end pin -- our historical performance students all play on period instruments!

    Bach was a master of every musical form that existed at the time in a way absolutely blows all other composers in history out of the water. His contrapuntal compositional style seamlessly blends melodic lines into a cohesive whole. Not only is every piece of music by him basically a masterpiece, he composed nearly 1200 separate compositions during his life, making his oeuvre one of the largest of all the master composers. Bach's music is perhaps the most influential source in the principles of music theory that are still used today.
