Here is a question for string players out of sheer laziness on my part since I could find this out otherwise, but don't want to do any work on it. 😎
What would be the instrument to play harmonics of the sounding notes:
4rth space e flat,
3rd space c,
a flat
g
all within the treble clef. Would those be possible on cello and would they be natural or artificial?
Hi William,
e flat can be played as touch 4ths by viola and cello.
the C can be played by the viola as a touch 4th on the C string or touching a node at that notes position.
The C can also be played by the cello as an artificial touch 4th.
Like wise the a flat is touch 4th on cello.
The G can be a touch 5th on the viola or a node at that notes position. On the cello, it can be played on the notes position as a node on the c string, or a touch 4th on the G string.
The harmonics you can touch on a node with one finger are natural...
