74. SPECIAL EPISODE: No.11: A Journey in German-Learning, Musik auf Deutsch. "Bezeichnungen: Bogenführung, Tempo, und Dynamik"

73. SPECIAL EPISODE: No.11: A Journey in German-Learning, Musik auf Deutsch. "Position"

This is the last of the introductory pages of musical instruction in writing from Heberlein's Self Instructor for Cello, Op. 7. (There are still more pages of writing instruction sprinkled throughout the 60 page method. More to come.)

In this episode, I learn more about the cello in the First Position and the notes that go along with it--in C major. There are some exercises as well.

72. SPECIAL EPISODE: No.9: A Journey in German-Learning, Musik auf Deutsch. "Der kurze Strich "

This is using Hermann Heberlein's Self-Instructor for Cello, op. 7.

This tangent has turned into quite a substantial undertaking. When I first thought of it, I imagined it would be several longer episodes. But as I am prone to go loooong periods without uploads a thought occurred to me, "Why not make lots of shorter ones?" That's just what I have done. They are much more manageable for me to record and edit. I've never been so on top of my output!

This side project is entirely driven by my desire and my need to speak German somewhat better than I do now. My native German speaking students of the cello are not so fond of speaking English so I decided (for once) to dive headlong out of my comfort zone and into a the deep end where I can barely form a grammatically correct sentence, yet somehow, the lessons progress. Perhaps the angels are helping me speak.

68. SPECIAL EPISODE: No. 7: A Journey in German-Learning, Musik auf Deutsch "C Dur Tonleiter und Intervalle"

Just another episode in which I am struggling to come to grips with German and its confounding grammar. On the up side, I seem to have learned and incorporated a few more musical terms into my vocabulary.

67. SPECIAL EPISODE: No. 6: A Journey in German-Learning, Musik auf Deutsch "Tonleitern oder Skala"

It seems that this consistent practice is helping my German skills. There are some improvements.

This episode will help greatly with vocabulary as it deals with several fundamental musical concepts: Scales and the steps between notes.

Thanks for bearing with me while I flesh out a sorely needed skill in German speaking especially surrounding musical language.

I plan on inserting a regular episode about Robert Fuchs and his 7 Fantasy Pieces next week.

66. SPECIAL EPISODE: No. 5: A Journey in German-Learning, Musik auf Deutsch "Das rechte Handgelenk"

Thanks for joining me in my journey to improve my German abilities specifically while teaching cello. Therefore, this is not a learning how to get fluent (although that would be a nice side effect) but more about how to communicate more effectively to my native German speaking student. Basically, I need more vocabulary in the musical jargon but also how to instruct using those terms.

When you do find this interesting or even instructive please jump over to my Patreon and lend some support and get a sticker, a shirt, or a mug in the process.

65. SPECIAL EPISODE: No. 4: A Journey in German-Learning, Musik auf Deutsch "Die Töne der vier Saiten"

This episode will cover all the pitches of the four strings in First Position.

I begin by introducing the purpose of this special series as well as asking if this is doing any good for learning musical terminology in German.

Perhaps you would like to weigh in on that thought question and give your comments to me.

This section in Heberlein's Self Instructor, Op. 7 is the lengthiest yet with lots of musical examples to accompany the reading. Each time the text gives some notes I inject them into the episode so that the reading stays as true to the text as possible. (Occasionally I explain or make a comment about the music or figure, testing my German abilities).

If you find this interesting or entertaining or would like to take cello lessons or put more musicality into your playing (regardless of instrument), contact me about lessons/coachings.
