Alfred Sound Innovations: Sound Development, Advanced Cello
Sound Innovations: Sound Development for Advanced String Orchestra continues the emphasis on playing with a characteristic, beautiful sound, while also focusing on 3-octave scales, particularly scales that students will need for regional auditions and all-state ensembles.
Product Overview
Advanced technical skills are presented in four levels, consistent with the revolutionary Sound Innovations structure: Sound Tone, Sound Bowing, Sound Shifting, and Sound Scales and Arpeggios. These levels can be used in whatever order works best for your students, as individual warm-ups, or as structured units, giving directors flexibility in how they incorporate the material into their program. This is the perfect book to follow Sound Development for Intermediate String Orchestra, or for any advanced string ensemble or individual learner, further refining proper use of the bow, bow strokes, shifting, and 3-octave scales.

- Advanced cello students preparing for regional auditions and all-state ensembles
- Orchestra directors continuing from Sound Development for Intermediate String Orchestra
