London Bridge Variations

A set of variations usng double stopping, easy harmonics and LH pizz.

Students and teachers alike love this piece!

La Cinquantaine

A popular exam choice, this lively 19th-Century Baroque pastiche requires some neat articlation and position changes. The middle section is in the tonic major.

Andante

Originally for violin, this piece is in the composer’s unmistakeable style and works well as a cello arrangement. It requires expressive legato playing, neat shifts between 1st and 4th position and uses a harmonic. There are good opportunities to show dynamic contrasts.

Sailing Home

A slow and very calming piece. All open strings and can also be played using the octave natural harmonics.

Unlocked

A mixture of fast and cantabile movements in an approachable contemporary style. It is a feast of contemporary effects such as arco battuto, tremolo, LH pizzicato and false harmonics.

The movements are: Make me a Garment; No Justice; The Wind Blow East; The Keys to the Prison; Trouble, Trouble.

Oversize music, poor print.
