6 Octaves Scale on a Cello? | How to Play Artificial Harmonics in Saint-Saëns Cello Concerto

Is it possible to play C Major 6 octaves scale on a cello? Can cello play higher than violin? What is the highest note in treble clef ever played on cello? Can we play 4 octaves or 5 octaves scales too? How high can a cello play? H ow many notes can a cello play? Let me try to show how to play cello so high it sounds like a violin! I will use artificial (fake) harmonics to play the last two octaves, which dramatically extends cello range. This advanced cello technique is often used in cello repertoire. After a 6 octaves cello scale demonstration I will talk about how to play artificial (fake) harmonics on cello. You will hear a demonstration of the famous example from the C. Saint-Saens cello concerto. I will show how to play in thumb position. I hope to inspire cello students to learn artificial harmonics with or without taking cello lessons with an experienced cello teacher.
