Volume 2 includes 33 pieces, the majority of which have one or two sharps/flats, and a few with three. The rhythms are in an easier zone with fewer 16th notes and dotted rhythms. While most pieces can be played in first position, having fluency through 4th position allows for more fingering options. There are no fingerings provided in this volume, so it’s a good chance to test your own fingerboard geography (shout-out to Rick Mooney’s Position Pieces Book 1). Probably a good range of pieces for Suzuki 2-ish players who want to play a greater variety of music with that skill set.
Edited by Pejtsik. Although these pieces can be played in half and first position, you have more fingering options if you know more positions. Despite “easy” notes, there are metric, rhythmic and counting challenges. You need to know your fingerboard geography because very few fingerings are provided. Both cello parts are of similar difficulty.
