Level: Early advanced with a focus on first through eighth positions.

Position playing with a difference - with motivating duets in popular styles which are fun to play. The player progresses in small steps from half- to 7th-position, thus covering the whole range. Each position is first isolated and then practiced alternately with others. The order of the pieces is flexible so that the collection can be used additionally to any cello method.
The second part is position-independent and intended for the teacher or advanced pupil. This way, it is fun to learn to change positions.
The original two-volume work has been brought together and rearranged in the present new edition which now provides information on all aspects of position changes in one volume.
