Description :

For more than three decades the ‘Sassmannshaus Tradition’ has been the household name for excellence in beginner string methods in German-speaking countries. More than half a million students have successfully learned to play string instruments using this publication. The publication of the four Violin books in 2008 in a fully adapted English version has been a big success. On the back of this success story Bärenreiter has now published the four books for Cello in a newly adapted version for today’s English speaking children. What makes this Cello method so unique? - The leading German Cello method now available in English. - Large print notes andtexts as well as many colourful illustrations are ideal for pre-school as well as school children. - Note reading is emphasised from the first lesson, encouraging ensemble playing from the very beginning. - Songs and scales in different positions are easily mastered within the first year of playing to ensure that children are not confined to first position playing. - Advanced Cello techniques such as varied bow strokes and shifting are introduced in a basic form.
