EARLY START ON THE CELLO BK 2

The Sassmannshaus Tradition is one of the most thoroughly researched beginner violin methods in the world and for more than three decades has been the household name for excellence in beginner methods in German-speaking countries. The second volume already presents class. numerous folk. The child’s knowledge and technique is expanded by dotted rhythms, sixteenths notes, and first double stops. And here is the most revolutionary aspect of the method: different finger patterns can be connected and combined to create any major and minor scale without the use of open strings. This creates the ability to practice scales in any position within the first or second year of playing! With this skill, songs learned in first position are easily transposed to other keys and higher positions. Coupled with beginning shifting exercises this sets a foundation for an early virtuoso technique not available in other methods. are easily transposed to other keys and higher positions.
