Description
Position Pieces for Cello offers students an engaging and systematic approach to mastering the fingerboard. Each hand position is introduced through exercises such as "Target Practice," "Geography Quiz," and "Names and Numbers," which are followed by carefully composed cello duets that encourage students to utilize the specific hand position. This method not only helps students identify the hand positions but also familiarizes them with the notes available in each position. With creatively titled pieces like "I Was a Teenage Monster," "The Irish Tenor," and "I've Got the Blues, Baby," the study of hand positions on the cello becomes an enjoyable experience.
