The Cello Company
The Cello Company was established in Parkersburg, West Virginia in 1994 by founder and director, Cynthia Puls. Her belief is that all children are talented. She uses the Shinichi Suzuki based principals in her teaching, just as a child learns to talk then to read words, these children are taught to play then to read music. She believes in promoting a family focused environment for the development of these young students. The secret behind the success of these students is their hard work, dedication, parental support, and a love of music.
The Cello Company performed for the WTAP telethon to support special needs children at Grand Central Mall, the opening of the WV House of Delegates in Charleston, WV, the opening of the Cultural Art Center (Parkersburg, WV), The Smoot Theater (WV), The Castle (Marietta, OH), The Multi-Cultural Festival (WV), Martin Luther King Celebration at the WV Cultural Center in Charleston, WV, Tamarack in Beckley, WV, as part of their Sunday's at Two Series, performed in the 2nd Annual Beatles Bash held at The Smoot Theatre, performed with the Evergreen Strings at Ohio Valley University (Vienna, WV) and the Marshall String Ensemble at Marshall University (Huntington, WV) as soloist on the Vivaldi Double Cello Concerto. The Cello Company had the privilege of performing with the Camarata Swedish String Ensemble concert as part of The Camarata US tour and with the Kremlin Chamber Orchestra as part of the Kremlin's US tour from Russia.
These students participated in the Varga Celebration in February of 2007 - celebrating Laszlo Varga, world renown cellist (University of North Carolina in Greensboro, NC). Janos Starker was in attendance.
Over the past school years 2007-2009 we've been quite active. Several members (Zoe Heflin, Henry Wang, Carter Rice, Arienne Miller, & Leighton Roush) performed as part of the OU Honor's Orchestra in Athens, OH. The Cello Company performed a Christmas Concert at The Castle in Marietta, OH and several members participated in the 5th Annual Cello Festival at Marshall University, Huntington, WV with Cynthia Puls as the clinician. In 2009, the 6th Annual Cello Festival at Marshall, under the direction of Cynthia Puls, a Cello/Guitar Ensemble Day took place. The group performed at Marietta College as a group with the violin class of David Puls. They end each year with a school day tour. Bravo to a great group of students. The Colony Fest was our 2009 Summer Kickoff held in Marietta, Ohio. Several of our students participated in the Merchants and Artists Walk in Marietta, Ohio this summer as well (2009). Two of our members participated at Wright State University 2nd Annual Chamber Music Weekend (2009)! Henry Wang was chosen for the Governor's School for the Arts at West Liberty College (summer 2009). Leighton Roush was chosen for the GSA in the summer of 2007. Zoe Heflin attended a Mark O'Connor Festival in NYC (summer 2009).
Living, loving and learning the life of being a musician. Cynthia searches out musical experiences for her students. Her class is enthusiastic and hard working. They are dedicated to their team.
