Is it easier to play sharps or flats on a cello?
Generally, strings prefer sharps (or so I would think).
I think this is because when you start, you learn sharp notes first (like F# on the D-string). Another reason is because if you want to play a Db (D-flat) that is just below your D-string, you would have to switch strings because you can't lower the pitch of your string. However, if you play a D-sharp, you can simply place your finger on the D-string and you get a D-sharp.
Can one cello play octave double stops?
