So, after 7 months here is my first recital. The woman I'm playing with is my sons violin teacher and we decided to learn the cello together, forcing ourselves to have a goal and do a duet together for the end of semester recital.
It's been fun playing along with my son and learning. So much more motivation when you can play with others. Great to keep each other motivated and reaching the next goal.
By the way, this is the Fiddlerman Artist Cello, really loving it.
music is from - Lee, Sebastian - 22 Very Easy Duets for Cello

Thanks Cid!
The strings came with the cello and I'm pretty sure it is a set of Helicore strings. Very easy to play, nice resonance. I use the fiddlerman CF bow with the holstein premium rosin. I find that cleaning the strings with the microfiber cloth after each practice helps greatly with the sound and about every week or two I do a deep clean with alcohol (careful not to get any on the cello).
One other thing I find helpful, when playing on the C & G strings you need to apply a little more pressure to get them to vibrate properly and get a nice deep resonance.
