Hello! Welcome to the Rose Cello Studio! This is a community helping cello players not just learn to play their instruments, but have fun by learning to play their favorite songs. We don’t just find the right sheet music for you. We learn how to make the sheet music the way we want it. My name’s Elisha G. Rose. I started my own cello journey in 2006. When wanting to play something outside of my Suzuki books, I always struggled to find the songs I loved written with the sound I wanted. That drove me to study music theory, which opened the creative doors of making the sheet music I want. As a teacher, I wanted to do more than just teach students how to play the cello. I wanted to help them learn to play the songs that first drew them to the cello. Improvisation is a part of my regular lesson routine, and melody writing is a standard practice in my music theory course. I put together this community to help cello students achieve the dream of playing their favorite songs. If you're ready to play your favorite song on your cello, then let's start the journey by... 1. Introduce yourself in a comment below. 2. Share a photo of your practice space. 3. Tell us what you're favorite instrument and song is.
