Synopsis "Octaves for the Cello, Book one"
Playing double stop octaves on the cello is no longer an impossible feat! These exercises, designed to build your left-hand strength and teach placement, are the first step in a system that makes playing octaves possible. After you have studied thumb position (see Thumb Position for the Cello, Book One and Thumb Position School), the next step in advanced cello playing can be learning double stop octaves, and this is the first book in a series that teaches them. The book begins with strength training to prepare the hand and continues with exercises in finger spacing that give you the precision required to play octaves. The exercises teach the "D" octave (with the thumb on the mid-string harmonic) and then teach the "A" octave (when the 3rd finger is on the mid-string harmonic). Finally, the book teaches you to shift between those two octave double stops. All advanced cellists can benefit from a daily study of octaves. Octaves form the basis for most of the thumb position encountered in repertoire. Many high-level skills, such as artificial harmonics, double stop thirds, and double stop tenths, can only be played if you have a fluent octave technique.Teachers can use this book to train their students in advanced double-stop playing on the cello before they are required to play octaves in solo literature, or as a technique supplement for students already playing octaves in cello literature. Professional-level cellists can use this book to refine and update their skills. This book can be followed by Octaves for the Cello, Book Two. This book is most helpful when studied with an instructor.
