Description

For over thirty years, the ‘Sassmannshaus Tradition’ has been renowned for its excellence in beginner string teaching methods in German-speaking regions.

Over 500,000 students have effectively learned to play string instruments through this resource. The release of the four Violin books in 2008 in a completely revised English edition has been very successful.

Building on this success, Bärenreiter has now released four Cello books in a newly revised edition for today's English-speaking children.

What distinguishes this Cello method as exceptional?

- The foremost German Cello technique is now accessible in English.

- Large print notes and texts along with various colorful illustrations are perfect for both preschool and school-aged children.

- The importance of reading notes is highlighted from the initial lesson, promoting ensemble playing right from the start.

- Within the first year of playing, children can easily master songs and scales in various positions to prevent them from being limited to first position.

- Basic forms of advanced cello techniques, including varied bow strokes and shifting, are introduced.
