Harvey, String Crossing for the Cello Book One, The Open String Book

Improve your cello bowing technique! This book teaches string-crossing technique on the cello with open-string studies that allow you to focus on the right hand.

Through the use of staccato bowing to encourage precisely-timed string crossing, these cello studies can help you develop bow control, smooth and even string crossing, and a more beautiful tone.

This book could be followed by String Crossing for the Cello, Book Two, which uses double stops to work on balance between two strings as a fundamental principle behind string crossing.
