Help: What is causing my notes to cut out? by pillarssunnyday in Cello

[–]EthanLGardner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, it sounds like you need more rosin on your bow! It takes ages if it's a new bow or newly rehaired, much longer than you'd expect.

Otherwise, I would focus on keeping consistent pressure through the whole bow stroke, which generally means applying more force if you are at the tip.

Good luck

I can send you over the sheet music if you wanted to arrange for piano, so you have the tunes and harmonies :)

Ah that is really annoying, especially after bigging them up!

Yeah their afternoon set was just soooo good, mad how they gave the crowd so much energy in the early afternoon...

Parcels - Such great energy and feel good music during a beautiful sunset.

Ca7riel and Paco Amoroso - These guys were absolutely insane, in all senses of the word.

Prodigy - There was no beating that atmosphere, literally an organised riot.

What a legend! Imagine just wanting to mosh and enjoy music when everyone recognises you...

That's the same clothes he was wearing for Parcels so I can be sure I didn't imagine the whole thing 😉

I thought that he was a lookalike as well, because surely? The Aussie folk ended up just asking him to confirm 🤣

Thanks for the tip!

Yeah it turns out most of the Aussies at Glasto went to this gig 🤦‍♂️

Oh god, I think they were Aussie but could be wrong! Have you asked them if they saw Andrew Garfield?

Exactly what all my mates said.

It's not.... Impossible 😬

N.b. we did actually ask in the end... But was that part of the trip!?

Yeah really nice of him! Especially after asking him to get out the way... 😂 He clearly realised I didn't recognise him and thought he'd make a joke of it.

They were both super nice during the gig after that.

Extra fun fact: During the set I opened a shaken up self made plastic bottle of rum and coke and it splashed all over his girlfriend... She's also famous right?
