5. A PRACTICE SESSION - one of many ways...

The very basics:

  1. Sit comfortably

  2. Tighten the bow

  3. Position your cello

  4. Tune

Then, we get into the practice.

I suggest here that you can do the following:

  1. Warm up each hand separately

  2. Play open strings

  3. Gliss a little

  4. Focus on a section in your book (if you have one)

  5. Play scales

The amount of time spent on each step is up to you.
