Taught by renowned cellist
Pablo Ferrández
Virtuoso cello soloist Pablo Ferrández takes us into the complex, stormy world of Schumann's unique concerto for cello and orchestra.
<p id="">I. Nicht zu schnell</p>
<p id="">In the first movement, we learn about the many alternating, manic emotional sides of this work. How do we alternate characters and balance the deep technical challenges?</p>
<p id="">II. Langsam</p>
<p id="">One of the most intimate, tender movements in the entire literature. Ferrández shows us how to create a warmth in the vibrato and a smooth legato, singing sound.</p>
<p id="">III. Sehr lebhaft</p>
<p id="">This movement, the final one, has a certain Germanic solidity to it. We learn how to find the stability needed and how to practice the fiendishly difficult infamous passage work.</p>
