Learning The Tenor Clef by Alan Gout and Pat Legg is the long awaited companion for cellists meeting the tenor clef for the first time. The new clef is presented progressively through numerous studies and pieces in all the keys known by cellists at around Grade 4 level, with cello or piano accompaniments. Several other playing techniques usually learnt when mastering the tenor clef are introduced including moving from the lower to the higher register, learning to read and play on the transitional part of the cello and reading tenor clef across strings

Thumb Position for Beginners introduces and then reinforces this technique at the earliest possible stage in cellist's development, drawing on a wealth of experience with beginner cellists. Pat Legg uses a wonderful array of familiar tunes and new pieces in both teacher/pupil and pupil/piano format to introduce and establish this new skill. Pieces are arranged for grade 3+ cellists.
