Half Position for the Cello

Fully learn this special skill
​

Half Position for the Cello teaches you to play in the position directly behind first position.

Shifting back into half position and playing across strings are covered in depth.

Half Position is often overlooked in cello methods, however it occurs frequently in cello and orchestral music.
​
​
Teachers, this book is great for familiarizing your beginning and early-intermediate students with a neglected position! 

This book could be studied along with Cello Stretching; Extended First Position.
