Edward Elgar
Edward Elgar's "Salut d'Amour," Op. 12, is a charming and sentimental short piece for violin and piano, composed in 1888. Originally written as an engagement present for his wife-to-be, Caroline Alice Roberts, Elgar published it under a pseudonym, concealing his authorship until later. The "Salut d'Amour" has since become one of Elgar's most popular and enduring works, celebrated for its lyrical beauty and heartfelt expression.

In this lesson, we learn about making a singing tone on the cello. Guo teaches us about creating big ranges of expression, and makes the important point that sometimes, even if we as players think we have conveyed a musical idea, it doesn't always come across to the audience, and therefore we need to make use of a larger dynamic range than we imagined. Guo also teaches us about creating a broad expressive palate with use of differing vibrati and bow shadings.
