Never met a string player who thought their intonation was good. We're all broken inside

[@jlvjazz]

So true!!

[@bertie6355]

Agreed!!!! I think it is because our self expectation grows faster than our ability.

[@charliegordan6354]

Thats such a good way to put it@@bertie6355

I think the observation is about not having the confidence to even consider that you might have good intonation

[@nekocafe8420]

I have met before people who play very out of tune, and considering themself as very in tune people xD, too much ego those people though

[@grahamhunt69]

love her vibe and also her cello voice!

[@cindyraine8313]

I often play and check my intonation on the Soundcorset application but never thought of playing with a drone. Excellent idea thank you so much 🎉❤

[@jakebullet4157]

Brilliant tutorial thank you. I’ve never played with a drone I’m going to try it right now. Loved the explanation you gave of the perfect pitch of the note causing the parent string vibrate in unison to make the full amazing sound happen.

Astrid is the best! ❤🎶

[@totorojoy]

[@greenviolist34]

[@liamcullen3035]

This is wonderful, thankyou!

[@doloresdelatorre5827]

Good advice thanks

[@razefkhan]

One has to know the tonal center to tune to tonic etc

[@yk1393]

Wonderful tips ❤❤

[@alicestoneheart5945]

I enjoyed the format of you switching up places! I’m traveling in Greece the first of September. Will the prices still be very high like in July and August?

[@Wilsondan27]

You play so well beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤

[@masonwelty8058]

If only we could all have such cello hands

[@elizabethcsicsery-ronay1633]

Mine are very small. But my right hand stretches far more than my left. Comes from playing cello since I was 11.

[@aidanmays7825]

As soon as the context changes that resonant note will be out of tune even if it sounds good with your open strings

[@davisrichardson1150]

What's the piece she plays here?

[@josephsdsu1]

Does Ms. Schween call the G string a C string at 3:27 ? Sounds that way to me; am I missing something?
Thanks!

[@eugenezenzen]

She's playing a D on the C string, no G string involved... does this answer your question? Or I may be misunderstanding your question.

[@josephsdsu1]

@@eugenezenzen Yes. I thought it was a G string.

[@pauloarnaudo1322]

Excelente gracias

[@marichristian]

I played the piano from childhood. I began cello at college. I believe my ear was trained because my intonation is quite good.

The devil is in the intonation.

[@venividi5938]

no normal musician thinks so)

[@WHCcccc]

Not "most of us" - you. Speak for yourself.

[@hikomusic]

Be nice!
