Join Alex Prizgintas as he explores classical, jazz, and rock music on the cello. While playing the cello in its traditional form, Alex also employs an assortment of guitar pedals to generate altered tones. Some of these pedals include the distortion, delay, the iconic “wah-wah” pedal (symbolic of 1960s rock bands), and a Boss RC-300 looping station. This is arguably the most important piece of Alex's equipment, allowing him to pre-record musical tracks as well as offering the ability to record and loop various tracks live while creating the sensation of a modern one-man band.
