The historical cello evokes the sound world of the Baroque and Classical periods, performed on original or reconstructed instruments. It is strung with gut strings, uses a shorter and more curved bow, and has lower string tension. As a result, its sound is softer, more natural, and more intimate than that of a modern cello. The historical playing style follows period techniques, ornamentation, and phrasing, with the aim of bringing the original character and sound of the music vividly to life.
