3. 0:27n
4. 0:36I am K I am here in London these days to
5. 0:40play the fono Das palala which also you
6. 0:43can call Viola Das palala it's up to you
7. 0:46Viola is the root of all these words
8. 0:48Viola and then you have violino which is
9. 0:51small Viola which actually is the violin
10. 0:54the viola is become today it became the
11. 0:57viola is what we still have as viola and
12. 1:00then you have violone which is a big
13. 1:02Viola in Italian then you have violon
14. 1:05cello which is a small big if you
15. 1:07understand what I mean so this is
16. 1:10actually a small big base play like this
17. 1:13you play not on the arm but you play
18. 1:15with the strap around the neck that is
19. 1:17the explanation you find in maton in box
20. 1:20surrounding it is the meaning of the
21. 1:22word vonell so there's no reason for
22. 1:25instance to suppose that the viello
23. 1:27Sweet By would be all of the s for
24. 1:30another
25. 1:31instrument it is very simple the result
26. 1:34is a much more
27. 1:36defined and and a bit more nasal sound
28. 1:39it was described in the early 18th
29. 1:42century sometimes as being close to the
30. 1:44bassoon so very very precise very
31. 1:49resonant also leading from the base in
32. 1:53in tonal music like barok and classical
33. 1:56is it's it's a paradise on Earth it's
34. 2:00much easier and much more useful than
35. 2:03than to lead from the viin I mean you
36. 2:06lead from that point where the music
37. 2:09start which means from the base so this
38. 2:12is an ideal kind of leading instrument
39. 2:16particularly in Bahan and Baldi also
40. 2:18this earlier Decades of the 18th century
41. 2:21it is the ideal instrument to lead an
42. 2:25orchestra I'm very grateful also that
43. 2:27they asked me to come to demonstrate
44. 2:29this instrumental to see how it
45. 2:31functions in in their context it's a
46. 2:34nice idea
