More "How I Did It" stories
It made me
How I did it: I already knew how to play piano so I had the reading music thing down. I took lessons with a lady for four months and learned the basics. I would recommend taking lessons for the first time because you want to get all the technique and posture right. That is the stuff that sticks with you and can make or break you later when you start doing the hard stuff. : ) Read how I did it…

i bought my 14 year old son a cello so he could play in the school orchestra. i’ve always wanted to play cello, not only the classical stuff, but if you’ve ever seen Metallica S&M, well…that’s the kind of stuff i want to play on it. also, Apocolyptica has some cool distorted cello stuff.

I believe I am an un-average teen. I would love to learn the cello. it has such an amazing sound to it. It seems so expressive and beautiful. I would love to be able to express myself through it. I write music and im a fast learner.

How realistic is it to learn the cello when an adult in his sixties? Good musical ear, but no musical training.
Wanna to start again....

My history with Cello…
...learned 3 years as a teenager, never sit any exam;
...learned 1~2 years 5 years ago, pass a ABRS Grade 3
Wanna to start again, but face the following “obstacle”:
- hard to find time after work time, study time, family time, TM time;
- don’t know if I can find an affordable place to learn cello in an expensive city like London…
BUT…I do miss my cello, it’s simply beautiful!

I took lessons with the lovely and EXTREMELY talented Dr. Janelle Ragno when I lived in Austin, TX. I have had to stop lessons since I moved to AR but hope to start again soon, once I’ve figured out my MBA results and plans. If you are interested in taking lessons with Janelle, here is her bio page with the Orpheus School of Music: http://www.orpheusacademy.com/Faculty/janelleragno.php.
Like any worthwhile endeavor, you should be prepared to commit and practice, practice, practice.

I love stringed instruments. But, the cello has got this deep, underground sound that makes me want to sing.
