This second volume is aimed at the cellist who wishes to reach a new technical level while maintaining a concrete connection to music. The goal is clear: to cover all positions on the fingerboard, integrating playing with backward and/or forward extensions, in order to secure shifts, intonation, and left-hand stability. The method also addresses the harmonic note, a crucial point for developing accuracy, sound quality, and understanding the instrument's natural resonances.
The learning is built around motivating musical material: popular songs play an important role, making the work more immediate and lyrical. At the same time, the content retains a "classical" foundation through explicit references to past cellists, which give meaning to tradition and the aesthetics of playing. The rhythm gradually diversifies, encouraging greater precision and ease, whether in reading, pulse, or articulation.
The texts, intentionally brief, go straight to the point: they accompany the exercises without weighing down the practice, allowing focus on gesture, listening, and intelligent repetition. A repertoire per lesson also offers more substantial pieces (concertos, concertinos, chamber music...), ideal for linking technique to repertoire and building coherent progression. This is a relevant resource for both lessons and self-study, with a structured, musical, and results-oriented approach.
