Scale Studies for the Third Octave, for the Cello, Book One

Master the Top of Cello Scales!

Scale Studies for the Third Octave, Book One gives you shifting exercises for the notes in the third octave of the D, E-flat, E, F, F-sharp, and G major scales on the cello.

Since the highest notes on the cello often cause the most trouble, this book helps teach you the finger positions and spacing in major scales.

Written for advanced cellists, this book is nearly all in treble clef, as it teaches notes in the high positions of the fingerboard.

To use this book in your practice, play one or more pages at the beginning of your practice, before you practice scales (Three-Octave Scales for the Cello, Book One, Book Two, Book Three, and Book Four, Galamian Cello Scale System, or Klengel Technical Studies).

Scale Studies for the Third Octave can help cellists prepare for youth orchestra and conservatory auditions and can help you feel comfortable in the highest reaches of the cello.
