Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Playing the cello requires a lot of physical strength, more than the violin. This can be gotten used to quickly however. You also need perseverance and passion, as they will keep you going despite the nicks you will get in your finger from the strings, and not to mention the pain.

If you can do that, you will reap the rewards: The cello is one of the most beautiful instruments. Its tone is the closest to the human voice, of all the instruments in the orchestra.
