The Cello Etude System, Book 1A: Closed First Position, DUET Book - PDF Download

Compiling and organizing some of the most effective etudes written for cello, this series of foundation studies gives you a comprehensive step-by-step method for perfecting your cello playing!

The Cello Etude System presents both rare and classic etudes interspersed with newly written material, in order of difficulty, providing cello teachers and students with a library of essential resources for teaching and learning cello. Recognizing that students learn at different speeds, The Cello Etude System books allow cellists to learn at either a relaxed pace or an accelerated pace.

With works by Dotzauer, Kummer, Lee, Nolck, Werner, Davidov, Popper, and more, this book has a huge array of rare studies for early-intermediate cello. There is a separate solo part for this book: The Cello Etude System, Part 1A; First Position Studies, Solo Book (CHPD281.)

This book, Part 1A, presents cello etudes in closed first position. The etudes cover techniques such as string crossing, embellishments, hooked bowing, and dynamics. This book could be followed by The Cello Etude System, Part 2A, which teaches extended first position and half position.

Note: this is a PDF download of the book; not a print book. This book can be saved to your computer and printed.
