Dotzauer, Fundamentals For Cello Technique Vl 2 (Ludwig)

"Fundamentals of Violoncello Technique Volume 2 covers positions 2 through 7 with a modern approach to cello playing. It includes literature from Dotzauer, Romberg, Lee, Kummer, and original material. The series prepares students for modern technical demands and is part of the Francis Grant Cello Series." Dotzauer was a professional musician who composed an opera, symphonies, overtures, a Mass, concertos, and chamber music. However, his educational compositions have proved to be of the greatest value. At the end of the 19th century, an idea came up to compile and publish a selection of his educational compositions that would meet the demands of the time. There have been several such publications, but Johannes Klingenberg's work has been the most successful.
