This book had historically been available to Mr. Doane’s students who already had the personal instruction. Think of it as a review book. Therefore cellists who order this thinking it’s a how-to book may be floundering. Were it not for the huge number of cellists who studied with Steve and are now teaching their own students, this book would likely not be available here. This is a caveat usually provided at the time the book is ordered, not knowing the background of some of our customers. There are 18 videos on youtube – search Steve Doane Cello Videos.
By Miriam Wu, Nancy Liebur and Wendy Bissinger. A workbook organized by regions of the fingerboard so the student can learn tenor clef in comfortable lower positions before advancing to upper registers of the cello. Starting with 1st and 2nd position, ending with thumb position, the student moves in and out of tenor clef. This book works well with Mooney’s Position Pieces, has a similar layout with workbook pages to make sure you know the names of the notes, then musical pieces to play.
