==Playing the Cello==
   −
The cello difers from the violin and the [[viola]] in that the cello is usually played sitting down with the instrument supported on the ground by the endpin, rather than rested on the player's shoulder.  The cello rests between the player's legs, with the neck rising above the left shoulder.  The bow is drawn horizontally across the strings, but the terms "upbow" and "downbow" are still used.  Many of the playing techniques from the violin, such as vibrato and the use of harmonics apply to the cello as well.
