That's because the "modern" ones are often older ones that have been altered for a modern setup. And the baroque ones are often in fact newly built, just as they would have been back in the day.
@@imauz1127Baroque tuning is A=415 and modern is A=440. Which is weird, studied classical cello in 2 parts of the world half a cross the globe, everybody uses Baroque tuning...
It's a lot warmer! Always loved the baroque instruments. Sometimes projection and force is not everything; although quieter, baroque instruments had very rich harmonics.
If anyone is interested, look up Phoebe Carrai’s interpretation of Bach’s Cello prelude no. 1. It’s a beautifully done on a Baroque cello. The tones are so warm you might have to “crack the window just a hair” as my dear mother used to say.
In the past, people played the cello on their feet, and there is no swollen part at the end of the cello because they used to play the cello on a stool, and the reason for the short fingerboard was probably to avoid bending too much towards the end.
I really like how near the beginning of the piece theres the note b in that low octave. It sounds so cool on the baroque cello, it has this low powerful kinda sound
The baroque cello also has catgut the original string before traditional metal ones were introduced!! They are especially great for when you are playing pieces from the classical era! It wouldve been amazing to see you compare haydn !
My mother was a violinist in orchestras in numerous states and 3 countries. I've been an huge classical music fan and always preferred Baroque instruments. it's a more pure sound with more texture.
Whoa! The deep sound on the baroque one! But the modern has less of that "scratch" or whatever it is, I dislike. That's why I like the cello better than the violine. The violine squakes and scratches more, imo.
Call me skeptical, but I'd love to hear the strings of the modern cello on the baroque, since if I am seeing correctly you've got gut strings on the baroque, which are naturally warmer and have more depth than steel strings
Nice. Your distinguishing process however seems little... well... first, nearly no baroque bridges survived. You will find a modern bridge on all baroque cellos. Second, fingerboards dtto. Endpins? Same thing, accessory.
You like the baroque one better because you expect it to sound better. If you didn't know which one is playing, you couldn't tell either. They both are nice.
It's really odd how I find similarities to saxophones in the differences between these two. Modern saxes tend to run cleaner and sound refined with less issues in the sound. Vintage instruments have this richer sound with more harmonics but are a wee bit squirrely with intonation and sound production.
🟦... All else be'n equal in circumstances & equipment settings,..then it seems to me that the Modern Cello has a Warmer, Fuller sound. ... The Baroque Cello Is Louder with a "thinner" more Strident upper mid-range, as well as a rather harsh coarseness to the low end. .... I Much prefer the Modern Cello.
The baroque cello just has more depth.. it sounds beautiful
I disagree, i think it sounds tinny to me, which would make sense given the shorter neck
@@jakefeingold1126trueee
it sounds more metallic and shallow imo
yeah, i think half of it is miking tho. cellos normally dont sound bad or grating. the modern one sounded horrid
I dunno bout that one chief to me it sounds just all around bad
😊the baroque intensity range makes my body tingle....
I think that's the scratchy chalkboard effect
I love how baroque instruments usually look brand new while modern instruments do all they can to look worn and interesting 😂😂😂
tbf it said his cello was from the 18th century
Because usually they're not much used, not as much as the "modern" ones
That's because the "modern" ones are often older ones that have been altered for a modern setup. And the baroque ones are often in fact newly built, just as they would have been back in the day.
Interesting how you put the modern cello in baroque tuning. I would've liked to hear the difference between the two tunings
I get what you mean, but that wouldn't be as good of a comparison like this, specially for all the non musicians listening
what does "baroque tuning" mean? I'm a pianist and saxophonist so i never have to worry about tunings...
@@imauz1127Baroque tuning is A=415 and modern is A=440. Which is weird, studied classical cello in 2 parts of the world half a cross the globe, everybody uses Baroque tuning...
@@imauz1127Baroque tuning is A=415Hz, basically, everything is a semitone down
i was wondering why it sounded off
I didn’t think the cello bridge was that big on a modern cello, I always thought it was like the violin proportionally
It's a lot warmer! Always loved the baroque instruments. Sometimes projection and force is not everything; although quieter, baroque instruments had very rich harmonics.
That baroque is so strong and deep!! Incredibly gorgeous sound
If anyone is interested, look up Phoebe Carrai’s interpretation of Bach’s Cello prelude no. 1. It’s a beautifully done on a Baroque cello. The tones are so warm you might have to “crack the window just a hair” as my dear mother used to say.
Bravo for keeping them both at A=418 hz. to keep the comparison equal 👏👏
I think the baroque way is also holding the bow more at the center, it gives you more control over the tone
No way bro has a cello from Washington’s presidency💀
Its interesting how he tuned both cellos down to baroque tuning
This video alone made me start listening to the Bach Cello Suite no.3 RELIGIOUSLY so thank you
That was a great video, lovely to hear the sound of your baroque one , thank you Jeremy
The Baroque cello scratches something in my mind lol the low note is so RICH
i can definitely tell the baroque is louder than a regular cello
In the past, people played the cello on their feet, and there is no swollen part at the end of the cello because they used to play the cello on a stool, and the reason for the short fingerboard was probably to avoid bending too much towards the end.
The baroque cello sounds more suited to parts that need to stand out while the modern cello would fit into a broader melody better
I really like how near the beginning of the piece theres the note b in that low octave. It sounds so cool on the baroque cello, it has this low powerful kinda sound
no wonder it's modern, the old shit always tends to suck. Good stuff
Bro resonates well... Listen to him.
The baroque sounds more hollow to me but both are great but that deep note the baroque is so satisfying
I love how you queue yourself… you sound amazing man, I could never dream of having perfect intonation like that.
No idea about cellos but I really liked that deep thrum of the second one.
That's because of the warmth given by gut strings! (for reference, the modern one has steel strings which sound tinnier)
As a jealous, the first one is definitely more deep. It has a richer sound
@@ethanweimer-kopf6907because in fact, the first instrument is older than the second and one
They sound different even when you're just talking in front of them... the echo from your voice sounds louder and less tinny in the secone one!
Baroque awesome
The talent and instruments are both beautiful!🎉🎉🎉 God bless
When you started on the modern cello I was not expecting baroque tuning lol
The baroque cello also has catgut the original string before traditional metal ones were introduced!! They are especially great for when you are playing pieces from the classical era! It wouldve been amazing to see you compare haydn !
You are a genius!
Omg the Baroque Cello was so deeepp 😍😍😍
My mother was a violinist in orchestras in numerous states and 3 countries. I've been an huge classical music fan and always preferred Baroque instruments. it's a more pure sound with more texture.
Like the modern cello! 💪
I knew that the baroque period used different bows, but I didn't realise that the instruments themselves were so different
I love the baroque cello ❤
First one sounds best
its almost as if the baroque cello was made to play this piece !
ugh, the sound of that modern one... in comparison...
Merci de nous montrer la différence. de Montréal
Bro not the subtle flex of “made in 1785” lol
Hard to appreciate the sound of either when you’re seem to have recorded the audio on an aluminum pie plate
Could you make a video with the baroque cello playing the second part of beach’s suite, pls 🥹
i played that piece at a recital recently!
Need to record it on a Baroque iPhone mic to really hear the difference.
Why is the baroque cello so 💅✨
I prefer the barock sound. But he is tuned a bit lower.
I like the classic
Screw the cellos! Lets get some more of that passionate breathing!!!!!
what do you mean?
I like the sound of the baroque cello.
I can hear your voice reverberating inside the cello
モダンバイオリンとバロックバイオリンの響きの違いと同じように感じました❤
If it ain’t baroque, don’t fix it
Thank you for sharing.😊
Baroque cello has gut strings as opposed to steel strings, therefore the sound is much softer.
The modern one sounds better to my layman ear
if jazz musicians had to breath like that every time before the played a bar i would never play music again
Whoa! The deep sound on the baroque one! But the modern has less of that "scratch" or whatever it is, I dislike. That's why I like the cello better than the violine. The violine squakes and scratches more, imo.
Bach is my fav
the 17th century french cello is the best sounding
Two modern cellos can sound as different.
Baroque cello all day. But I would want a base pin.
I liked the modern.
DO WE HEAR AN YOYO MA HERE!
I CAN HEAR ONLY YO MAMA 😢
Funny, both cellos aren't bother by the feedback on G6 (1567.9Hz).
Cat gut strings used in baroque strings
They should bring back the baroque cello. I can’t see what the modern cello has the baroque doesn’t have as far as sound quality is concerned.
Call me skeptical, but I'd love to hear the strings of the modern cello on the baroque, since if I am seeing correctly you've got gut strings on the baroque, which are naturally warmer and have more depth than steel strings
Love the cello!
The baroque is fire
The baroque cello, unsurprisingly, has a much more pleasant quality of sound and resonance.
"This is my super sexy baroque cello" *** is what he meant 😌
That baroque tho
So cool
damn bro tuned his cello a whole half step down for a video
Baroque seems a lot softer
Baroque ftw
baroques cello 😍
I'm going for baroque!
THE BREATHONG GOT ME ROLLING (I play the villon I'm not asking fun)
beautiful
And cant forget the catgut strings
Am I the only one who hears an F# in the background while he is speaking? lmao
I'm stealing one 😂
The baroque cello is more resonate. Very good, it was probably expensive huh?
The real sound difference is the gut strings, no? I've never played a Baroque cello, tbf.
Nice. Your distinguishing process however seems little... well... first, nearly no baroque bridges survived. You will find a modern bridge on all baroque cellos. Second, fingerboards dtto. Endpins? Same thing, accessory.
Can’t forget the gut strings
I love baroque as a bias, but what strings were you using on the 1785? (I think it was that year).
beautiful. gotta either change mic or change room (you've got some mid-high frequency goin on in there - my guess is the room)
I much prefer the baroque
You like the baroque one better because you expect it to sound better. If you didn't know which one is playing, you couldn't tell either. They both are nice.
Modern sounds better in general, but the other one has a better low register
The barroque Cello is great it has thiker sound, is it from the strings?
I play cello to I am a beginner
the baroque has much more bodi and resonance😊
Body excuse me i'm spanish

The modern one sounds a little more nasal
grounding the cello steals vibrations, same reason the neck rest makes violin sound worse!
