Master Your Hand!
​

Cello Stretching: Extended First Position teaches you how to reach beyond first position to play flats and sharps.

​Starting with extending to 1st finger flats and finishing with extending forward to reach 4th finger sharps, this book covers all of the stretching you could ever need. 

​Cello extensions are best studied over a period of time so that the hand can gradually get used to reaching without tension. Cello Stretching provides ample practice material for continued work.

Teachers can use this as a supplemental book to other methods and repertoire. 

​This book can be studied along with Playing in Keys for Cello, Book One, which focuses on the keys that use these extensions.
