Playing in Keys for Cello, Book One teaches the beginning cello student to play in first position in C, G, and F major. By focusing on areas where students typically struggle to adjust to a specific key (for instance, knowing whether to play 2nd or 3rd finger on each string), the book builds a deep knowledge of the keys; sharps and flats are presented as vocabulary in a language. With carefully graded exercises and short pieces, this book is a valuable addition to the beginning cello repertoire, giving teachers a much-needed tool for teaching keys. Playing in Keys for Cello, Book One is appropriate for beginning and early-intermediate cello students, as well as adult learners. This book works well along with The Triplet Book for Cello, Part One and can be followed by Stretching to Extended Position for the Cello, Book One.
