[IMC #2227] Originally composed for two oboes and English horn. Cello I is entirely in tenor clef and requires thumb position; Cello II is in bass clef moving briefly above 4th position for a B; Cello III barely moves out of first position to an occasional E. There are many octave jumps in the lower positions, many ungainly passages.
#2414 Op. 119, Nos. 1 & 2. Parts only; no score. Parts are in bass clef and of uneven difficulty with Cello I’s range just beyond the harmonic A. Cello II does not exceed the harmonic A. Cello III and IV are easier, fluent to fourth position
#3780 Edited by Jeffrey Solow. Each part is in its own book. Don’t confuse “easy” with “for beginners.” Range stays within bass clef, 4th position, but includes more complex rhythms, lots of double stops that are not against open strings, sections in 3 sharps and flats. No idea why this volume is so expensive, but it does include a lot of music! I find this to be fun and practical sight-reading material as the range of notes is comfortable, but the intervals and rhythms really show you where your geography shortcomings lie.
Each part is in its own booklet. Parts are of comparable difficulty, remain in bass clef and have a range through 4th position.
