Learning the Tenor Clef: Progressive Studies and Pieces for Cello (Cello Piano) [Paperback] Review

Learning the Tenor Clef: Progressive Studies and Pieces for Cello [Paperback]This is the second book I've reviewed which is 'supposed' to teach you tenor clef.It does nothing of the sort.The book gives you absolutely no background information on the clef, nor does it show you where the notes are, or any sort of guidance. There is not ONE word of explanation or diagram in the entire book.This book is definitely not for the beginning student. I've been playing for 2 years and I can't make heads or tales of this book. The title of this book is "Learning the Tenor Clef", which is not truly misleading as long as you recognize that you'll need to be taught how to read/utilize the tenor clef by some other means. I am disappointed with this book.

Cremona SC-130 Premier NoviceCello, Full-Size Review

Cremona SC-130 Premier NoviceCello, Full-SizeCremona is a company out of China that produces this particular piece. The quality of the strings, bow, and bridge are low... But the quality of the cello body itself is quite remarkable for the money... This would be perfect for any beginner cellist. However my bow, in particular has a slight bend to it, does not effect playing too drastically... And I needed to replace the strings, as they'd screech often, and not note properly. After investing ~$80 into strings, and better rosin, my Cremona SC-130 sounds beautiful. And I'm very fulfilled with this purchase.

Solo Time for Strings, Book 1 [Paperback] Review

Solo Time for Strings, Book 1 [Paperback]When I ordered this item, what shipped was Solo Time for Strings for Bass Book One (which is also available under a different item number and description).Amazon does not apparently sell Solo Time for Strings for Violin Book One (although they sell Book Two).The description here is competely incomplete.I'm giving the product three stars, because it might be some use for a bass student, but it's no help for a young violinist.

The Power of Your Love: Eb Alto Saxophone (opt. Trombone, Cello) (Book) [Paperback] Review

The Power of Your Love: Eb Alto Saxophone [Paperback]this book is a versatile collection of arrangements of common worship songs.the solo and accompaniment parts allow for a little improvisation, and would be a good start for someone who likes to see a riff written out, but wants to try improv. some arrangements get repetitive if this is not done. some arrangements are a little on the long side. it would be best for a young high school jazz student, or for the church musician who wants something that can pull together quickly for the service. the accompaniment requires that the pianist be excellent at reading difficult rhythms and familiar with latin, jazz, folk, blues, and CCM idioms. there is also the option of adding drumset or additional instruments, including pennywhistle/recorder, guitar, etc. these are real crowd-pleasers - my husband and i get nothing but positive feedback when we perform them.

Advanced 4 String Electric Cello -Black- by Rocket City Music Company Review

Advanced 4 String Electric Cello -Black- by Rocket City Music CompanyI jumped on an electric cello as the only thing I'd be able to play in my apartment. I certainly enjoy this cello, but it should not be described as "'silent' when not played through an amp." In reality, it sounds only slightly quieter than a real cello, except for the lowest string, which is significantly quieter. If your goal is to be really really quiet when you play, the piercingly loud, higher notes are still going to be just that.

Still, the fact that it has a full-body, wood resonating chamber is sure to produce a more authentic sound when amplified (though I am not able to compare it to one of those minimal-frame electric cellos).Rocket City should just cut holes in the front and make it an accoustic-electric.

Product Description:
This cello is a professional artist-level instrument guaranteed to be one of the best electric cellos on the market. The body is made with a fine spruce top, maple back and sides. The cello is set up with ebony hill pegs, ebony fingerboard, ebony hill tailpiece, one fine tuner, Sacconi-style tailgut, and ebony endpin. Free professional set up is included to ensure proper fit of pegs and bridge. Note: Bridge will be shipped 'down' to avoid damage. Input jack works with any 1/4" cable. Controls are volume and tone. Cello also has a professional-level pickup including built in pre-amp for direct amplification and recording capabilities. This cello sounds clean and is 'silent' when not run through an amplifier, having a very small amount of acoustic sound giving the instrument its tone. It is an unparallelled asset on the concert stage and in the recording studio, truly a superb value for the price.

The Beach Boys: The Beach Boys - Instrumental Play-Along Pack for Cello (Instrumental Folio) [Paperback] Review

The Beach Boys: The Beach Boys - Instrumental Play-Along Pack for Cello [Paperback]We bought this for our 10-year-old son who has just started the saxophone this year.He's an avid Beach Boys fan, so we hoped this music would provide him with additional practice material and help to stretch him a bit.IT HAS.He started with some of the the slower songs, "In My Room" and "Surfer Girl" and is now feeling confident enough to take on faster songs, such as "Wouldn't It Be Nice?"He's psyched to be able to play songs he has listened to and enjoyed for quite some time.The accompanying CD is great as well for keeping the beat and letting him hear the way the notes work together to create the melody.
