About this cello masterclass:
Cello professor Anne GASTINEL and student Jungin Huh take on this difficult sonata by Johannes Brahms,
originally written for the violin and piano. While navigating through the piece, they discuss the strange
marking of Vivace ma non Troppo present at the beginning of the piece. On the one hand, Gastinel
explains, Vivace indicates something very lively and fast, but on the other hand, ma non Troppo
expresses a certain calmness and tranquility. How can one accomplish both sentiments at the same
time?
Additionally, the cellists work on vibrato, where and when not to do a crescendo, choosing sostenuto
over a crescendo, expression, and on a more abstract matter: approaching short notes as if they are long
notes and vice versa.
• Maintaining the right tempo.
• Adding plenty of vibrato in this piece.
• Applying sostenuto over crescendo and vice versa.
• Expressing the intended emotions.
• Bowing and fingering.
