What musical instrument(s) do you play?

Cello

ALL levels of players are welcome! Describe your playing ability: a) which positions are you comfortable with; b) are you presently taking lessons (if not, when was your last one)?; c) what was the last piece you worked on?

I have started the third Suzuki book (but not really trained in the Suzuki method). I have some familiarity with shifting from positions[masked], but generally need guidance in what fingering to use. I am presently taking lessons from Kitty Knight at DU and we have been working together about six months. Prior to that, I had a long series of CU grad students as teachers.

What is your experience playing with a) orchestras; b) chamber ensembles; c) cello choir?

None.

Do you have any particular topics of interest to cellists that you would like to hear addressed in our meetup?

I am generally interested in any topic related to the cello. I am always looking for tips on how to accelerate my learning since I started late in life.

We meet monthly. How often do you expect you will be able to attend a play-in over the next twelve months?

I am retired and generally available on Wednesday nights, so could attend those that are scheduled. I am attending Rocky Mountain Cello Fest starting on July 22, so will not be available to attend the meetup scheduled for that date.

Introduction

I am Susan from Louisville. I am learning to play the cello as an adult, with no prior musical training. I am eager to learn to play as part of a group since I have only had private lessons so far.

What Susan is saying about this Meetup Group

Great job Psyche. I liked how you helped us fine tune key places in each piece to make us sound so wonderful!
