Includes parts with score. Parts of unequal difficulty. Cello I tenor and treble clef, Cello II and III tenor clef, Cello IV bass clef. Rhythmic challenges.
Includes 55 short pieces playable in first position. Pieces increase in difficulty rhythmically, starting with half and whole notes and gradually introducing eighth notes and dotted quarters. None of the pieces have more than two sharps or flats. A piano part may be ordered separately. We feature the series for Two Cellos, but we also usually stock these compatible books for Two Violins and Two Violas. So either duet partner can play the top or bottom part!
