21 Pieces forCello Players WithPiano Accompaniment & Play Along Audio

The book “Shooting Stars – Cello Book With Piano Accompaniment & Online Audio” is a new edition that includes 21 pieces tailored for cello players. This edition provides piano accompaniment and online play-along audio resources to enhance the learning experience. It is part of the Boosey & Hawkes Easy String Music series created by Katherine & Hugh Colledge. This series consists of four volumes of repertoire designed for new and developing string players, and it is highly regarded by both teachers and students.

The series is known for its effectiveness in steadily introducing and reinforcing new techniques, fingerings, notes, and rhythms, providing a solid foundation for future learning. For each volume in the series, there are online demonstration and accompaniment audio resources available to aid students in their practice and performance.

Each title in the series is available in two editions: a standalone string book designed for students and an expanded edition that includes additional piano accompaniment. In the case of “Shooting Stars,” which is the fourth volume in the series, the 21 pieces introduce 2nd, 3rd, and 4th finger notes. This collection also presents various rhythmic challenges, such as triplets, basic syncopation, a piece in five-time, along with some chromaticism and new bowing techniques.
