Most cello pieces make use of a bow, which is is used rather like a violin bow to vibrate the strings. However, like a violin, it is also possible to play pizzicato i.e. plucking the strings two thirds of the way down the fingerboard with the tips of the fingers with your thumb on the side of it.

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.

There are many different D flats on a cello and several different ways to play them. Here's how to play the first three D flats in first position: The first D flat is a low first finger on the C string. The next D flat is a high fourth finger on the G string. The next is a regular three on the A string. Check with a piano or tuner to make sure that you are in tune.

The inside of the cello is hollow. There is a sound posts (wooden dowel) that presses against the treble side of the front and back of the cello, to help with the sound. There is a bar that is glued to the top which strengthens the bass side. There are 2-6 blocks, one to support the neck, one for the endpin and 4 for the corners on most instruments.

My friend is a great cellist and her first cello was $1,000. However, you probably shouldn't go any lower than that, as it will affect the sound quality. A decent, beginner's cello goes for around two and a half grand. If you're keen on starting with the cello, you're probably going to get lessons, so find a teacher and he/she will tell you. I don't know if you're at school, but you can ask a music teacher at your school, or if you live anywhere near a university, I'm sure there will be music students or professors who can answer your questions.

With normal tunings a cello can reach the C two octaves below middle C, which is one octave below the lowest note for a viola.

Doesn't matter which music is used. The instrument doesn't dictate the playable music, the PERFORMER plays the music, not the instrument. As a professional Trombonist, I play music written for Trombone, Cello, Trumpet, Clarinet, Kazzoo, Kitchensink, whatever.....I'm not bound by what the music may be "listed for".

If this is the Cello Concerto No. 2 in D Major it was composed in 1783 for the cellist Antonin Kraft.
It consists of three movements- Allegro Moderato, Adagio, and Rondo- Allegro. The overall mood is peaceful with a number of key modulations to A and C major in the 2nd Movement and D Minor in the final movement.

Well, it's a bit like asking how an acoustic guitar is different to an electric one.
An electric cello is shaped very differently to an acoustic one; it looks kind of a stick with strings and knee rests, if you can picture that. And, of course, it plugs into an amplifier, so the sound is a lot louder. This makes it good for bands and large music groups, because in situations like thee acoustic cellos tend to get drowned out. I'm told an electric cello is more difficult to play than an acoustic one.
Oh, and electric cellos only come in full size.

No. The bass is tuned differently than the cello, and plays much lower - in orchestral practice, commonly an octave lower. The upper range of the bass and the low-mid range of the cello overlap, however. But the same passage played on both will sound a lot better on the cello.

C, under the base clef - A, 3 above the treble clef But if you're thinking of composing for the cello, don't write anything too far above the treble clef; these are just maximums.

cello is short for violoncello which is an italian word that is masculine, and when pluralised the ending changes to -i according to Italian grammar.

Hence; one cello, two celli

don't say celloes. you will sound like a fool.
