Take the Berliner Philharmoniker Cello Challenge

Published by Ken Pendergrass under cello, fun, games

Ok- you have to stop what you are doing right now and head on over to The Berliner Philharmoniker Cello Challenge (after you read my post)…

When you get there you will see the following directions as you get ready to hear The Swan in a whole new light:

YOU VS. CAMILLE SAINT-SAENS
There are one million possibilities to get tones from a Cello. Will you manage to get the right ones?
Take the bow and lead it with your mouse.

Move the mouse in the rhythm of the music and be sure to keep the small ring in the centre of the large ring.
When you do it wrong, you’ll hear it.
Do it correct and you’ll get points.

Here is a screen shot to give you an idea:

And thus begins the latest diversion for me in the past hour…here’s my high score:
