A Pedagogical Approach to Vibrato Styles for Advanced Cello Students and Their Teachers

Abstract

dc:description

Vibrato is an important technique that is often discussed in the learning process. At the advanced level, students need to form their own artistic sense of when to use vibrato, what kind of vibrato to use, and how to use the vibrato to enhance the music and achieve the composer's intentions. The purpose of this study represents two big issues: the first, in chapter two, is a discussion of different types of vibrato. This chapter provides a classification of vibrato into different possibilities of vibrato expression. The second issue, in chapter three, discusses the approach to teaching vibrato. This chapter lists the potential problems that students might have and presents exercises to solve the problems. Chapter four presents a way to interpret music which gives both teachers and students a guide to approach the music which will equip them with more confidence to explore their interpretation.
