Twelve Carols of Czech Christmas - two cellos of elementary level
The large (13”x 9.5"), super-high resolution, custom-printed, saddle-stitched format. Individual parts and a score are provided for every carol.
These arrangements are created for all cellists to enjoy and also serve as supplementary performance pieces for students learning through the BumbleBee Method. They are intended to be played by students and their teachers, or by other cello students at least one level more advanced. The first cello part is arranged for beginner cellists who are comfortable playing in the first position with some lower extensions, can command legato slurs and basic bow articulations, and can perform smooth string crossings in eighth notes across all four strings. The second cello part is mainly intended for a teacher. Still, it can also be performed by a more advanced cello student who can comfortably use both lower and upper extensions in the first position.
