Technique Takes Off

Fourteen original, imaginative studies for solo cello, specially designed to lead on from elementary studies for younger players to more advanced material by Dotzauer and Popper. Each piece concentrates on one or two aspects of technique, and the whole set covers a wide range of left and right hand skills, including spicatto bowing, string-crossing, moto perpetuo, cantible, and easy double stops. Teachers and students will find this invaluable, yet light hearted, collection both enjoyable and stimulating.Cohen, Mary is the author of 'Technique Takes Off', published 1996 under ISBN 9780571514205 and ISBN 0571514200.
