Twenty One Classical Studies for Double Bass

The pieces in this book have been loyally arranged from the original piano scores to be performed on the double bass. The collection consists of seventeen solo pieces and four pieces with piano accompanied. All the arrangements have been compiled from the original piano scores and arranged to be played by the solo instrumentalist. Each piece presents a study to strengthen the left hand and improve bowing technique, whilst providing a range of challenging sight reading exercises in a variety of key signatures. The Brahms Waltzes would serve as ideal warm up or warm down exercises and are excellent for position work and when combined with scale practice. Features: Prelude in E minor (F.
