Free Cello Etudes in Closed First Position!

Celebrating the release of Book 1A in the Cello Etude System!

The Cello Etude System has been carefully structured to help students who learn at different paces. Here is how it works:
  • Book 0: Beginning Studies
  • Book 1A: Closed First Position
  • Book 2A: Extended First Position and Half Position
  • Book 3A: First Position and Fourth Position

Two Learning Paths in Every Book

There is a relaxed path and an accelerated path through every Cello Etude System book. The relaxed path takes you through all of the etudes and the accelerated path (for learners who move more quickly through music) takes you through a carefully selected segment of the book that teaches all essential skills but without as much repetition.

Book 0

Book 0 has beginning cello etudes: open string etudes, studies with just open and first finger, etc., progressing to basic etudes on all four strings in first position. 
Here is Book 0:
And here is the blog post with free beginning etudes (not included in the book!):

​Learn to play the long slur at the bottom of page 38 in The Two Octaves Book for Cello!

Picture
When I was asked about ways to learn and practice the long slur at the bottom of p.38 in The Two Octaves Book for Cello, I knew I wouldn't be able to answer the email just with text because there are so many great exercises to learn long slurs. 
Here's the slur. It's pretty tricky to play all of the shifts, save enough bow for all of the notes, and keep everything smooth and even!

Here are some tips for working on these free cello exercises!

Learning Three-Octave Arpeggios - Free Preparatory Studies!

11/1/2019

Figuring Out How to Teach Cello Arpeggios

As long as I have been studying or teaching cello, learning arpeggios consisted of seeing an arpeggio and trying to play it. This was fine; even workable, but as I came to discover, not the best way to learn or teach cello arpeggios that would be consistently in tune.
Three-Octave Arpeggios on the Cello: Preparatory Studies
Some students struggled mightily with the larger spaces. Other students didn't understand the concepts behind the fingerings. All in all, even the most talented and advanced students only played a perfect arpeggio about 1/3 of the time, which wasn't great for auditions!
I became acutely aware of the lack of an actual cello method for teaching arpeggios when Theresa Villani (a wonderful cellist and teacher) reached out to ask if I had one. Since I had no idea where to start, I did quite a bit of brain-storming... and wrote a scale method instead!
Learning Three-Octave Scales on the Cello
After Learning Three-Octave Scales on the Cello was published at the end of August 2019, I still didn't quite know which arpeggio fingerings to pick for the book but at least I had a blueprint for how to teach notes and spaces.
I finally settled on three distinct fingerings for Learning Three-Octave Arpeggios on the Cello. The first fingering, used in the Galamian Scale System for Cello (among other books) is a little like a staircase; you go up the C string, then over to the G, then up the G, then over to the D, then up the D, then over to the A. 
​
Learning Three-Octave Arpeggios on the Cello
The second fingering is very straightforward: you go across to the A string and shift up the A string.
Learning Three-Octave Arpeggios on the Cello
The third fingering, used in Klengel Technical Studies for Cello, Volume One, shifts up to the thumb on the D string and then has you play the top octave of the arpeggio in thumb position. ​
Learning Three-Octave Arpeggios on the Cello
Each of these three fingerings has something to teach cellists. A study of all three fingerings will give you a comprehensive knowledge of fingerboard geography and larger shifts on the cello.

Learn Cello Scale Spaces - Free Sheet Music!

9/2/2019

One of the best ways to map the fingerboard for your mind and fingers is by learning scales. Three-octave scales, in particular, can be used to teach nearly all of the notes on the cello.
Learn Cello Scale Spaces - Free Sheet Music!
As I watched over the years while some of my students struggled with knowing how far to shift in three-octave scales, I knew that there had to be a solution. 

Surprisingly, the answer came while I was writing a scale book for the violin! 

Because violinists typically play with four fingers in each position (1-2-3-4), instead of three (1-2-4 or 1-3-4), I was able to write exercises that used notes they already knew to teach notes in the next position. 
When I saw how well the exercises worked, I just knew that I had to find a way to use that same concept to teach cello scales.

​I started writing studies for a three-octave G major cello scale and tried them with several students who had never played a three-octave scale before.
I wasn't surprised when they figured out the exercises; it was a pretty easy concept. But I was absolutely shocked when, at the end of playing the 4 pages of G scale exercises, those same students were able to play the scale straight through, without stopping, and in tune!
Picture
New Release!
Before this, I had wheedled and cajoled and talked my students through their initial 3-octave scales. And, after they finally learned the scales, some of them played scales in tune but some just didn't.

​This book was a game-changer for me and my students, cutting out months and years of frustration, and helping them master entire three-octave scales in all of the major and minor keys.
Cello whole step
Cello whole step
Cello half step
If we take time to think about the steps in scales and teach them to our fingers, it is possible to truly learn scales, play more in tune, and play in tune more consistently.
Cello D Major Scale
To celebrate the release of Learning Three-Octave Scales on the Cello, this post gives you the major scales written out with all of the whole and half steps so you can think about and remember each space. 

And if this whets your appetite for scale mastery, check out the new cello scale book!

​​Tips for Playing Cello Three-Octave Scale Steps

  • Play these exercises slowly. 
  • Think about each space as you play it.
  • As your mind sees the words "half step" or "whole step", try to remember how that space feels in your fingers.
  • Roman numerals refer to strings, not positions.
       I = A string
       II = D string
       III = G string
​       IV = C string
  • If you have trouble playing scales in tune, or just want to improve your scale intonation, study the scale exercises in Learning Three-Octave Scales on the Cello.

Cello Positions: Free Cello Note Charts and Shifting Exercises

2/28/2019

1 Comment

 
Picture

Starting to play in positions on the cello can be daunting!

However, after you have played in first position for awhile, the other notes on the cello are begging to be learned! So many great cello repertoire pieces use positions and learning shifting can help you reach more notes, make playing across strings easier, and even avoid open strings if you want to. 

1. Learn Cello Fourth Position 

This method was written for adult learners and includes pictures and diagrams that help explain where fourth position is. Exercises and short pieces on each page work together to teach a skill. This book is available as a PDF ebook on www.learnstrings.com and as a print book on www.amazon.com.

2. Learn Cello Positions in Depth

A great way to learn cello positions is by studying each position. Here are a few position method books: 

Are your shifting books too hard?

​Try the Preparatory Study Books

​
(great for fearful shifters)​

These books have very easy studies that can make shifting an easier, more gradual process. Each study focuses on a single shift and the exercises progress slowly to allow you to get comfortable with shifting.

4. Study the Position Exercise Books

Picture
Ever-so-slightly easier than Serial Shifting, Pattern Shifting for Cello has exercises in rows and patterns. The exercises progress more slowly than those in Serial Shifting and this book could be studied along with other position methods. 

The first half of the book has studies in 1st through 4th positions while the second half of the book has studies in 1st through 8th positions.

All of the exercises are in C major to allow you to fully learn the basic cello positions and spacing.  

Pattern Shifting for the Cello is available as a PDF ebook on www.learnstrings.com.
Picture
A little bit more difficult than Pattern Shifting, Serial Shifting for the Cello has similar exercises in rows and patterns. The exercises progress more quickly than those in Pattern Shifting and having a prior knowledge of positions is advised.

The first half of the book has studies in 1st through 4th positions while the second half of the book has studies in 1st through 8th positions.

All of the exercises are in C major to allow you to fully learn the basic cello positions and spacing.  

Serial Shifting for the Cello is available as a print book here on www.charveypublications.com and on Amazon.com and Sheet Music Plus.

Prepare to play the Saint-Saens Cello Concerto in A minor!

2/20/2019

Preparing for Saint-Saens

Picture
The Saint-Saëns Cello Concerto No. 1 in A minor is a work for cello and orchestra (or piano), written at an advanced level. Studying this Concerto often takes a year or more; it's a major work!
While there are no clearly marked or numbered movements, the Concerto does have three fairly distinct sections that might correlate with our idea of typical concerto movements. 
Some techniques used in the first two movements are octave shifts, fast shifting (sometimes called "runs") into the high positions, double stop fifths and sixths, spiccato, and thumb position. 

Free Saint-Saens Preparatory Exercises

These free preparatory exercises can help you get ready to start studying the Saint-Saëns Cello Concerto. They work on some of the basic techniques needed to play the first few pages of the Concerto: bowing, octave shifts, chromatic scales, and more.

Books to study in preparation

The Saint-Saëns Cello Concerto is much easier to learn if you have acquired a solid grasp intermediate and advanced cello technique. You should be able to read bass,  tenor, and treble clef and play in thumb position. You should have learned three-octave scales and it would be helpful if you have also studied octave shifts, double stop sixths, and double stop octaves.

Free Cello Scale Bowing Variations

8/7/2018

0 Comments

 
I love the fact that scales are such a great vehicle for learning different skills on the cello! Scales can and should be much more than just playing notes in order in a particular key in a particular set of places on the cello; they can also be used for learning rhythm and bowing skills. 

Today in the blog, we're going to focus on using a simple C major scale to work on cello bowing. Now, the possibilities here are endless. I could start writing today and never ever reach the end of variations I could make with this scale. But there are other books to write and so I will stop at 15 pages for this little booklet. Of course, I'll probably come back every once in awhile with another blog post on scales; scale variations are a bit of a passion of mine!

Scales are helpful because they are so predictable. You know what's coming and the notes (at least in these scale pages) are fairly easy. But that doesn't mean you should turn off reading and play from memory just yet; I have some breaks in the pattern built into these scale pages to help keep your attention while you play. 

Scale variations are a perfect way to multitask. Variations are a great way to train your left and right hands to be more coordinated and also a great way to make your practice even more efficient; you're working on multiple skills at once!

Feel free to make variations on the variations! Boredom lets you turn your brain off and can be the opening for building bad habits! Cello technique should never be taken for granted; every minute of your practice should be spent actively trying to improve. Varying the exercises can help you stay focused. I play different pages of scale exercises every day (that's one reason why I had to write so many books!) These variations can be played on any scale but they're simplest on a 2-octave scale that starts on an open string. Try them in G major if you're into shifting and up for a challenge.

    Cassia Harvey can't ever find or play enough exercises. She searches for rare and out-of-print studies and etudes in her free time. If you know of any, please let her know. Seriously; it's an obsession.

    Myanna Harvey's teacher assigned her piles of exercises when she was growing up but whenever her mother stopped listening, Myanna would quickly break away from the Sevcik to play a bit of Brahms or Beethoven she had heard on the radio. Now she practices with exercises and assigns them to students but her greatest passion is playing chamber music.
