	VIOLONCELLO - LoveToKnow Article on VIOLONCELLO
		Although the word violoncello is a diminutive, signifying " small violone," or double bass, the instrument is really a bass violin, formed on a different model from the violone, which has the sloping shoulders and flat back of the viol family, whereas those of the violoncello are rounded as in the violin.
		The construction of the violoncello is therefore the same as that of the violin (q.v.) but on a much larger scale.
		It is either held, on account of its size, between the performer's knees, or rests on the floor supported on a foot or spike.

	Music Education - The Violoncello
		The age that appears most convenient for beginning varies between six and twelve years, but a beginning may be made later, as long as the lack of flexibility is not in opposition to the exigencies of the position, particularly with regard to the bow.
		Before its adoption, the violoncello had to be held by a slight pressure of the knees, and the feet were constrained to a rather ungraceful position, almost a contortion ; moreover, the forced contact of the skirts to a certain extent spoiled the vibrations of the sound cavity.
		By reason of its compass and its several registers, the violoncello is the only instrument that demands the knowledge of three clefs : the treble, tenor and bass (G, C in alt.

	The Violoncello and its History, Conclusion (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
		IN taking a retrospective glance at the progressive development which Violoncello playing has displayed from the beginning of the present century, it is evident that this branch of Art has reached so great a degree of perfection that it seems scarcely possible it can rise much higher.
		It follows that on account of the larger dimensions of the Violoncello, and the character of the instrument, double-stopped combinations are far less suitable for the deeper than for the higher strings, a circumstance of which there is no question at all on the Violin.
		One of the stronger points which the Violoncello possesses in its favour is its suitability as a solo instrument in Cantilena playing, in which it is not surpassed by any other.

		The development of the art of the violoncello in Vienna in the first half of the last century was encouraged by the general ferment in the musical life of the Austrian capital in the post-Napoleonic period.
		One can talk of the Viennese violoncello school as an organic trend only symbolically since the Austrian capital was a haven for representatives of different national schools (such as the Czech) and the "teacher-pupil" links were not as distinct and consistent as with the Dresden school.

		I have written sereral pieces for cello in combination with some other instruments, and as for this piece, I started writing it as a kind of draft for my "Violoncello Concerto", which then turned out to be something totally, and both pieces were completed in the same year.
		Though it looks similar to a violoncello, a contrabass is in fact an instrument of quite different nature.

		A stop, of 8 ft. pitch, similar in the form and scale of its pipes to the Violoncello, but slightly softer in tone; properly occupying, in this respect, an intermediate place between the Violoncello and the Violoncello Sordo.
		The distinctive peculiarity of the stop under consideration lies in its being tuned slightloy sharp as to produce a wavering effect when sounded in combination with a correctly tuned unison string-toned stop, preferably the Violoncello Sordo, imitating as closely as possible under the conditions, the effect of the vibrato on the orchestral Violoncello.
		It is more usable if of slower undulation, because the other rank with which it will be combined will probably be somewhat dull.
