“Since I began my cello studies more than 10 years ago, I have struggled to find a teaching method that really delivers results. The books, methods, and studies by Cassia Harvey and her sister, Myanna, present what is the most contemporary approach to cello learning and study. Positions, string shifts, double stops, bowing exercises and so much more can be found in what Cassia develops. Today, I play and study so much better because of the books and methods I buy from Cassia. Thank you so much for contributing to my studies!”

After not playing a string instrument for 30 years because of other musical career choices I decided to play the cello in my retirement. After not having any success with the traditional methods and not wanting to start with “twinkle, twinkle”, I stumbled across Cassia Harvey’s string books. They were exactly what I needed: well organized, progressive books addressing specific technics, playing styles or problems in a very systematic and through way perfectly complementing the repertoire that you are working on. Her Bach, Fauré and Saint-Saëns books are marvels of education on how to practice. In a relatively short period of time, I reached a level in cello playing that I did not expect that soon. Highly recommended for teachers and autoditacts too!
