Hi everyone! I hope you're all enjoying the Easy Cello Tutorials, and the monthly sheet music drops! Sheet music for March will go in the first week - I invite you to use your powers to vote on what you would like next! :D https://www.skool.com/cosmicgirlie-9212/march-sheet-music-drop-you-choose?p=80b0c77b I've been doing lots of recording this week, with more to come, for the Easy Cello Tutorials. Here's what to expect over the next few weeks: Don't You Worry Child - Swedish House Mafia Running Up That Hill - Kate Bush/Stranger Things I Will Survive - Gloria Gaynor He's A Pirate - Pirates Of The Caribbean Material Girl - Madonna/Bridgerton I could do with some more classical recommendations which people might like. So if you have something in mind which you'd love to learn without the sheet music, let me know! Have a wonderful week. :) J x ✨ Play BOLDLY | Shine BRIGHT ✨

Hi everyone! Just to let you know, I'm going to (attempt to remember to) do a check in every Wednesday, just to see how you're all doing, catch up with stuff, and hopefully let you know what's coming up. I can't guarantee this, but I thought it might be helpful if and when I do, hahah! So this week, I have a LOT of new sheet music added to the Custom Sheet Music Classroom. Remember you can check out the pinned post at the top of the Community feed, which lists everything in there so far. I probably won't add any more for this week, but should hopefully add another 4 or 5 next week. There are some more Easy How To Play tutorials on the way also; I'll be uploading them here first before anywhere else, so you get early dibs. ;) Coming up, you'll find: Can't Help Falling In Love - Elvis/Crazy Rich Asians Feeling Good - Muse Don't You Worry Child - Swedish House Mafia Running Up That Hill - Kate Bush I Will Survive - Gloria Gaynor Also remember you have your monthly free sheet music drop, something nice and simple to get you started - this month was "So This Is Love" from Cinderella. Next free drop will be early March. I'm also going to drop some coaching support PDFs soon, which I used for my private students last year as part of their "7 Day Goals". These might be helpful to those of you who are practicing and/or performing regularly, and just need a little more help and support. Catch you all later! J x ✨ Play BOLDLY | Shine BRIGHT ✨

...is...back?? I started this last year and actually really loved it. But unfortunately, music life burnout took hold, and I had to drop a lot of things, including the podcast. :( I'm happy to say that it's returned, and the first episode talks about that very burnout I went through, and the feeling of having "lost my voice". All episodes are on YouTube so you can watch and/or listen...and let me know if there's any topics you'd like me to talk about! https://youtu.be/bM9eCRlvSd0?si=LHPHlDNKwpm50Naa

So, in full experimental mode, I'm thinking I'd like to do Wheatus' Teenage Dirtbag this week, as a live learn! I'll post the music in the Custom Cello Sheet Music Classroom, and then do a full playthrough, cover any tricky bits, what backing track I use, and anything else that might help you. For now, you can have a listen to a little snippet of it - enjoy! (Next week, I plan to upload a VERY simplified version I've made of Bach Cello Suite I Prelude - fabulous if you're looking for somewhere to start, but feel a wee bit overwhelmed by all the notes on the page!)

Because isn't there always a test post when you're setting up new stuff?
