Pivot, Pivot

Two of my beginning cello students showed me how to pivot the left arm when we hop from high B to G in “Song of the Winze”, aka “Song of the Wind”.

We are all working on keeping our left elbows from sinking too low, even the bass section.

Violinists scoop their elbow under the violin when they hop from a high string to a low string.  Stay tuned for pics in a month or so.

Shout Out to any cello or bass teachers out there reading my blog…Comments, suggestions, hints??  Let us know!!
