Zusammenfassung
Features open string pieces and tunes using the finger pattern 0-1-34 and includes original pieces from rock to calypso. Offering an introduction of new notes and rhythms, this work explains simple slurs and dynamics. It features easy duets and includes a CD with performances of all the pieces to play along to.
Zusatztext
The Cello Time books are more conventional and make excellent use of technology in the shape of CDs with very imaginative backing which includes the cello part. My pupils loved them . . . In both books the progression is excellent, the pieces not too long and there is a good glossary at the end . . . this is a most welcome publication.
Bericht
A pleasant surprise is in store for cello teachers who have not yet come across the Cello Time series . . . The repetitive aspect of practice goes unnoticed when we are presented with such a diverse choice of appealing material. Smiling faces and brightly coloured cheerful scenes on the front cover of both volumes set the stage for an enthusiastic learning atmosphere. Humorous illustrations throughout ensure the promise of happy lesson times. The books are not too long for youngsters to wade through and the pages are clearly spaced and easy to read.
