What is fifth position on cello?

Answer 1

When you are in fourth position on A string, your second finger is on F. Fifth position is where you put your first finger (index finger) and put it on that F. A string is just my example. It works on all strings.

* 1st position is the first that you learn so the others i will tell you where they go in relation to this. * 1/2 position-your second finger is where your first would normally be * 2nd position-your first finger goes where your third would normally go * 3rd position-your first finger goes where your fourth would normally go * 4th position-your first finger is a tone lower than your fourth finger would normally be, so your thumb is at the base of the neck * harmonics-when you are in 4th position you can stretch out your third finger and just rest it on the string, if you slide your finger up or down a little, you will find where the note rings best on your cello. There are more harmonics but this is the most common place to use them, you can find the rest by slowly sliding yourfinger down the string. * thumb positions-this is when you go further down the fingerboard with your whole hand, they are difficult to explain but you learn about them in grade 6/7/8

In short, sixth position on cello is when a cellist's index finger of the left hand sits on the note "G" on the "A" string. When playing the cello, you place the fingers of your left hand on the string to create a pitch that is different from the pitch of the open string. The most basic position is called "first position," where the first (index) finger plays a pitch exactly one whole step above the open string (on the A string, 1st finger in first position would play "B" natural, on the D string, "E" natural, and so on and so forth). Cellists determine the numbered name of a position based on how many scalar pitches (in the key of "C" when measuring on the A string) above the open string the first finger sits. To find 6th position, simply count 6 scalar steps above the open "A" string (in the key of C) to determine on which note your first finger should sit. Where "A" is 0 (because it is an open string and requires no fingers), B is 1st, C = 2nd, D = 3rd, E = 4th, and F = 5th, G would equal 6th position. When your first finger is sitting on G on the "A" string, your left hand is in 6th position. Note: even if you play a different finger, you name the position of your left hand based on the location of your first finger.

Balancé is usually executed in three counts The dancer typically begins in fifth position, in plié. Before the first count, one foot extends in a degagé, typically to second position however balancé devant or derrière are also possible. Balancé is often confused with pas de valse, a waltz step. However, when doing a balancé the three steps make a "down, up, down" motion (fondu, relevé, fondu), whereas in pas de valse, a true waltz, the motion is "down, up, up" (fondu, relevé, relevé).

Long story short, balancee is like shifting from one position to another, doing some pirouettes. Starting from the fifth position. You can also watch a video by visiting the related link.

Answer 5

place your first finger one note higher than you would normally place your 4th finger
