The cello, or violincello, is the second lowest of the stringed instruments. It has a warm, dark, lustrous sound and is incredibly expressive.

As with violin and viola, the cello is bowed. It sounds an octave below the viola. Fractional (different sized) cellos can be rented or purchased enabling young and small students to begin learning.

The cello is found in string, chamber, and symphony orchestras, chamber music and has also found its voice in rock music. The instrument has been around since the mid 1500s and a wealth of music has been written for this instrument.

Cello lessons are available at Accent Music Studios. We accept students from all over the lower mainland servicing mainly North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Burnaby, Coquitlam, New Westminster, Richmond and Vancouver.

Here are a couple of recordings which demonstrate the cello’s lyrical beauty.

Yo-Yo Ma - Bach: Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major, Prélude

Bach’s cello suites are some of the most iconic classical music works ever written, so much so that they have been transcribed for many other instruments.

ELGAR CELLO CONCERTO, JACQUELINE DU PRE

This was the last major work Elgar wrote and is a rich and noble work.
