This book presents exercises and studies to help intermediate cellists learn and perfect Gabriel Faure's Elegie for cello and piano, Op. 24. The entire piece is broken down into short sections and taught. Difficulties such as shifts and scale patterns are approached from a variety of perspectives, giving the cellist ultimate mastery over this staple of the classic cello repertoire. The cello part to the Elegie is presented in its entirety at the end of the book (the piano accompaniment is not included). |
