Daily Exercises, Op. 82 & Op. 83 - Cello

As with sport, daily exercises are also important for the cello in order to familiarise yourself with the instrument and develop your technique. Lee's Daily Exercises offer ideal material for concentrated practising. 40 short etudes in simple major and minor keys from 3b to 3# mostly comprise around 16 to 32 bars and deal with topics such as dynamics, string changes, arpeggios, bowing technique and mixed stroke types, double stops, octaves, chromaticism, trills, grace notes and much more. Sounds very technical, but it is musically appealing and fun!
