This collection of etudes by the virtuoso Sebastian Lee was used as a standard work for cello lessons at the Paris Conservatoire back in the 19th century. For thorough technical training and education, the etudes remain just as relevant today. In this new edition, in two volumes, any departures from the original are clearly marked. In addition useful tips and suggestions for practising have been added. / Violoncelle

The Secret Of Technique In Cello Playing.Daily practice for soloists and advanced players by Albert Sammons. Op20. Transcribed by Lionel Handy. 'I was introduced to Albert Sammons' classic work The Secret of Technique in Violin Playing by Hugh Bean. I was fortunate to play chamber music with Bean for many years and he maintained that his ability to keep his technical level was largely due to Sammons teaching in general and this book in particular. Bean was a pupil of Sammons for more than twenty years and believed that this concise work was ofgreat benefit to students and also professional players with limited practice time. I am very grateful to Mr Richard King Sammons grandson and Mrs Mary Bean for allowing me not only to transcribe this work for Cello but also to include where appropriate the suggestions Sammons made in his original text and the additional notes that Bean added in the 2002 edition. I have tried to stay as close as possible to Sammons material but some adaptation has obviously been necessary. I hope that my own comments for cellists will clarify the changes that have been made and are offered as Hugh Bean said in his 2002 edition in the spirit of wishing to help both aspiring and established string players utilize to the full their practice time. Although this transcription contains several exercises not found in the classic Cello studies of Popper Duport and Grutzmacher et al I hope that the unorthodox nature of these exercises will broaden and free the imagination of cellists by providing a more extended approach to Cello technique.' - Lionel Handy

Important techniques such as dexterity, (wide) change of string, change of position, double stops, harmonics, pizzicato and trills are exercised in these charming studies. / Violoncelle

Studies play an important role in musical instrument training.Gerhard Mantel's new edition Etüden üben (Practising studies) (3 volumes) complements his previous successful book Cello üben' (ED 8714).The basics of cello technique are worked on in selected studies, with the focus being not only on the ability to learn a technically and musically oriented text within a reasonable time but also on the solution of certain problems typical of the cello.Vol. 1 covers aspects ranging from the orientation on the fingerboard via changes of position, vibrato and trills to changes of strings and double stops.Vol. 2 deals with fingerings, whole-bow stroke, dynamics, articulation and types of bowing, among others. The final volume contains studies on legato, arpeggios, chords, martellato, staccato, spiccato and changes of rhythm.The accompanying volume of commentaries (for all three volumes) describes in detail the methodological practising processes.

One of the most widely used series of methods for individual or like-instrument class instruction. Using a very well-rounded approach including scales arpeggios technical studies studies for musicianship articulation studies solos duets and studies devoted to the special needs of each instrument this series provides a fantastic wealth of material for all student musicians.
