Description

Have you already learned all basic cello skills and are looking for new music to boost your level? Have you played enough of repetitive exercises and looking for more exciting music to work with? This cello course is made with you in mind!

I know that you are busy with so many things to take care of. Although I do not promise for you to be able to play cello well after 1 hour or one day, I will teach you how to achieve good progress while having limited time to practice. We will not be learning to play cello by studying music theory and sitting by the computer. We will do it by trying to play as much as possible.

You will get 6 complete tutorials how to play the etudes 1 to 6 from Sebastian Lee's Melodic and Progressive Exercises Op.31 Book 1. While working on these melodic etudes, you will improve your rhythm, get better understanding of bow distribution, get used to paying attention to breathing to improve your sound quality, start playing staccato, get more creative understanding different moods of each piece and much more!
