About this exposition

Name: Benjamin Marionneau Main Subject: Classical Cello Research Coach: Susan William Title of Research: Musician's Warm-up Research Question: Warming up, why and how? Summary of Results: Like in sport, warming up is the first thing a musician can do before a practice session or a performance. Playing an instrument requires a lot of involvement from the body and the mind, and can be very demanding. Therefore a session of practice or performance needs to be well prepared if the musician needs to play a long time in order to avoid all the problems that he can meet by the demands of practicing and performing. There is no need to spend a very long time on the warm-up, but important to do it in a good way, and in order to succeed in warming up it is good to have some knowledge about why and how to do it. In this presentation, we will approach the warm-up from the physical side and the mental side, without and with instrument. To do so, I will explain and give a few exercises and information that should be relevant for any musician who wishes to improve his knowledge in this field. Biography: Born in 1987, in Poitiers, France. Benjamin Marionneau began playing the cello around 7-8 years old in the music school of Bressuire in France, and then moved to Poitiers where he studied with Marc Benyahia Kouider for almost ten years. He obtained his diplomas of cello and chamber music there in 2005. Then he moved to Paris and studied four years there, first with Henri Demarquette in the conservatory of Saint-Maur-des-Fossés where he obtained diplomas of cello (2006) and chamber music as well (2007), and later in the conservatory of Rueil-Malmaison with Marie-Paule Milone, where he got a "prix d'excellence" (2008). After four years in the Royal Conservatoire in Den Haag he received a Bachelor with Jan-Ype Nota and Michel Strauss as main teachers. He is now studying with Lucia Swarts and Roger Regter in Den Haag. He also participated in masterclasses and received cello lessons with great teachers as Anner Bylsma, Janos Starker, Jerome Pernoo, Xavier Gagnepain, Marc Coppey, Philippe Muller and François Salque, and regularly with Harro Ruijsenaars for the past four years.
