Complete Cello Course for Busy Beginners

This cello course is made with you in mind. I know that you are busy with so many things to take care of. Although I do not promise for you to be able to play cello well after 1 hour or one day, I will teach you how to achieve good progress while having limited time to practice. We will not be learning to play cello by studying music theory and sitting by the computer. We will do it by trying to play as much as possible.

I will show you easy bow hold and pizzicato (string plucking) exercises. With your patience and love of cello, we will continue with scales and Dotzauer cello method. Ultimately, I will share with you the joy of playing cello duets of different levels of difficulty. You will even be able to play “Happy Birthday” and “Joy to the World” to surprise your friends and, possibly, be able to find even more friends to make music together!
