Sitting: Chair, Feet, Power at Tip. Cello Lesson with Paul Katz.
CelloWisdom:
The cello world thanks cellist Victor Sazer for introducing these concepts of “playing from the floor”, the steering the body through the feet, and finding a chair height that protects the lower back and frees the arms.
-Paul Katz
Our bodies continually provide us with information, yet we too often ignore or do not understand their messages.
-Victor Sazer

The idea of steering the cello from the feet. That's new to me. THANKS MR KATZ!!
Mr. Katz, I wish you'd been my teacher when I studied at NEC. I really appreciate your sharing of genuine knowledge of technical issues that so many cellists face. Wonderful videos !
Very informative. Thank you!
Great observations....
At the end Mr. Katz asked the student to do it the ‘wrong way’. I asked Selma Gokcen in one of the 4 CelloBello videos she did in 2020, which was the correct way to shift the weight of the pelvis. I was surprised that she said it was to keep your weight in your left foot when playing at the tip where is Mr. Katz is teaching the opposite, Bob Jesselson’s way. I think it is easier and more useful (you’re giving yourself more ease especially on the A string) to do it the way Mr. Katz is teaching it, however the other way works too in that you can play with balance in both ways of moving.
This was SO useful! Thank you!

Glad it was helpful Larry, thanks for watching!
Yes yes yes
Podríais subtitular este video al español?? Gracias!!🔝🎯
Some of my cello colleagues tried to teach me how to move like that in my playing. I was never good at that.
0:37 I saw 4 strings and 3 pegs...

Yes he let the peg of the C-String get sawn off. Many cellists do that so they can sit more comftable because the C-peg can really disturb you. You can still tune your string. Even if its extremely out of tune. You get a special tool for it and you can still tune with the peg.

It’s called a posture peg. It doesn’t get sawn off. Just a special small peg with a tool to adjust it. It’s so the peg doesn’t poke your ear and neck. Some cellists find that feeling bothersome.

It's one of those posture pegs. Quite a few cello colleagues of mine have that.
