Are you an intermediate or early-advanced cellist who wants to take their technique to the next level?

These intensive cello double stop shifting exercises will help improve your intonation and help build your left-hand strength. At the same time, they will raise the intensity level of your practice, making the time you spend on exercises as efficient as possible.

Moving through the first seven cello positions, these exercises use double stop sixths, thirds, and occasionally fifths and fourths to build your cello technique.

Who this book can help: Cellists who can shift between the first seven positions and want to improve their shifting and finger strength.

How to use this book: Work on one exercise each day, after warming up with finger exercises, scales, and shifting exercises.
