Don Firth	BS: Things to do with a cello (49)	RE: BS: Things to do with a cello	15 Sep 14
Until they got the various viells and voils sorted out some centuries ago, the nearest thing to a cello was the viola da gamba (literally, "viola of the legs"), which, I believe, the player actually held clamped between the legs. In paintings of the time and such, I see no evidence of an end pin. Don Firth
