How to Store a Cello

FRANCIS JOSEPH SANTORI: Good morning. I'm Francis Joseph Santori, and today we're going to discuss the storage and proper maintenance of your cello. First of all, it's a really good idea to keep your cello in a nice, hard plastic case or something equally as durable. I use this quite frequently in flying. If you choose to do so, then this is a good way to go. You want to make sure that all of your latches are secured when putting your cello in its case. And also, you want to ensure that all your straps are secured around the instrument itself. This is to prevent it from moving around inside the case and getting any sort of damage. I also keep a rag or a t-shirt for wiping down the instrument before and after every time I play.
