<p>Lastroseofsummer, I’ve played the adagio in G minor on marimba. Bach didn’t write anything for mallet percussion (so jealous) , so we have to borrow your stuff I absolutely love playing Bach. I should have been a string player! Haha. I’m actually thinking about taking up cello as a secondary in college.</p>
<p>Good luck to everyone!</p>
<p>RachPlaysDrums- cello is a beautiful instrument, I’m sure you will love learning it! I would love to play, but I have tiny hands (I’m only 5’2"!). I never knew Bach was played on marimba, I think I’m going to have to get a recording now :)</p>
<p>My teacher is always telling me, “It’s good, but it needs to sound more like a violin.”
I can’t tell you how many hours I’ve spent watching violin and cello performances on
youtube!</p>
