- Hello Cellists,
Today I’m talking about the two Gavottes from Bach’s Cello Suite No.5 in C minor, BWV 1011. I will show you where the variation on the first theme happens and how slurs mirror what is going on in the music. We will also compare Anna Magdalena's and Kellner's copies.
Below is a short reading list and helpful links for studying the Bach cello suites. Please let me know if you have any comments and/or questions, I would love to hear from you. Thank you for watching!!

Allen Winold’s book: Bach’s Cello Suites: Analyses and Explorations

"The Fencing Master" and the sequel, "Bach and the Happy Few," are both must reads if I may say so, written by THE baroque cellist of our time, Anner Bylsma.

Another must-have is Barenreiter’s urtext edition, which contains facsimiles of the manuscript copies in the hand of Anna Magdalena Bach, Johann Peter Kellner, as well as the Westphal library manuscript (anonymous copiers), first editions, and more.

Cool! I have trouble with the double stops with my pinky
Brilliant ! Thank You !
I know it’s unconventional, but I like to play gavotte 2 at top speed, with long slurs and piano, like a fast wind flying by. For me the climax is the downward arpeggio to low C, I crescendo as it descends then dim as the line comes back up.
I this movement, the arpeggiated phrase around low C sounds like sweep picking of distorted electric guitar. Actually, Metal guitarists sometimes refer this gavotte 2 they may find a relevance between Metal music!
Great video as always Mrs Segev!
I would like to know what equipment do you use to record the sound of the cello, is that the camera microphone only or you have a dedicated mic to capture it?
I want to record my practice sessions, but the smartphone mic don't have such a good quality sound :/
Thanks for your videos, hope you keep making them!
Cheers!
Hi Lucas, thanks for watching and writing. I use a DPA cello mic, which is really the best in my opinion. My videographer also uses a separate mic to capture my voice. Hope that helps(-:
Ótimo trabalho... abraços do Brasil
hello Inbal Segev, I have been following your work for a long time and I try to learn as much as possible watching your classes, although the language barrier is huge (I used Google translator) lol, the language of the instrument is one ... I learned to play prelude by Your cause, half of the video views are my kkkk ... I would like to have a contact with you, an email for example would be very good, if you want you can call me to suck a little more knowledge ... more kisses from Brazil! !!

This is the most difficult thing I’ve ever studied, it has a LOT of tiny details.
I play this without tuning the A string down
