170 Foundation Studies for Violoncello - Volume 1

Compiled by Alwin Schroeder, a former cellist with the Boston Symphony Orchestra and an experienced teacher, this collection of 80 exercises constitutes the first book of a three-volume set. Schroeder created his own etudes for instructing students, and in this work he combines them with several others by his distinguished 19th-century European colleagues. The carefully selected studies are arranged in order of increasing complexity.
