The cello has a warm, deep sound that comes very close to the human voice. In cello lessons at Music Campus München you learn bowing, clean intonation and playing in the first positions step by step. Because the cello has no frets, it trains your ear right from the start.
You play the cello sitting down, and it rests comfortably against your body. Whether a Bach suite, film music or a pop song, the cello fits almost any music and sounds just as beautiful on its own as in an orchestra or ensemble. Children start on smaller instruments, adults go straight to the full-size cello.
The cello has no frets either: exactly where your finger sits decides the note. Press a string and hold it. The bow moves by itself. The tuner shows you how close you are. Can you play the “Ode to Joy” on the A string?
Posture, how to hold the bow and the open strings: a round tone comes in the very first lessons. Then the fingers of the left hand join in, and with them the first melodies.
Clean intonation, scales and shifting, bow strokes and vibrato. Plus pieces from classical, film music and pop, on your own or with others in an ensemble.
Children start from around age 6 on a smaller cello that grows with them. Adults love how quickly the cello sounds warm and full.
Regular, short sessions bring the most progress. Your teacher shows you how to practise so that bow and left hand become secure.

For regular lessons it makes sense to have your own instrument, so you can practise at home. Our office will tell you whether to bring anything to the trial lesson and which rental instruments may be available. We help you choose and point you to suitable music shops in and around München.
Private lessons start from €110 per month, at 30, 45 or 60 minutes, weekly or by arrangement. If you'd rather not sign a contract, the ME Time prepaid card starts from €36 per lesson (30 minutes). Our office will be happy to give you the details in person. Just call or send us an email.
You arrange a time by phone or email. In the trial lesson you meet your teacher, see the rooms, play your first notes and tell us what you'd like to do musically. The trial lesson is free of obligation and commits you to nothing.
The focus is on bowing, intonation, scales, rhythm and playing together. Style-wise we play what you like: classical, film music, folk, pop and jazz. Beginners and advanced players are equally welcome.
