A terrific volume from the Yehudi Menuhin Music Guides series which serves not only as an introduction to playing the Cello but also as a history of the instrument and Cello compositions. William Pleeth is a world renowned recitalist, soloist teacher and performer and his experience and knowledge of this subject is outstanding.
There is a wealth of brilliant and perceptive advice in this valuable book and with photographs and accounts of William Pleeth in action, this is a comprehensive and indispensable guide for player and reader alike. Includes an introduction by Yehudi Mehuhin and a foreword by world famous Cellist Jacqueline Du Pre.
The Yehudi Mehuhin Music Guides are hugely important and twice as useful! Each one concentrates on a particular instrument from the orchestral family; giving information, background, history, and technique all by recognised and skilled musicians - experts in their field.
