Technik- und Übeanleitung für Violoncello.
A practice guide for the modern cellist.
»A
Grand Tour of Cello Technique« is a thought-provoking practice guide,
enabling cellists at all levels to develop their own style through an
exploration of different ways of fingering and bowing. The book not only
helps cellists improve their playing, but also promotes an
understanding of musical art through nine stimulating chapters.
With
a particular emphasis on music of the 20th and 21st centuries, and its
connections with earlier music, Fred Sherry takes the reader on a voyage
of discovery of the art and science of cello technique, informed by
music ranging from Bach all the way through to Berio.
Fred Sherry
has introduced audiences on five continents and all fifty United States
to the music of our time for more than five decades. He has had close
working relationships with Charles Wuorinen, Lukas Foss, Oliver Knussen,
Elliott Carter, Milton Babbitt, Toru Takemitsu, Chick Corea, Pierre
Boulez, Mario Davidovsky and others whose works he has premiered and
recorded. He has been soloist and »sideman« on hundreds of commercial
and esoteric recordings; his discography ranges from Schütz, Bach,
Mozart, Beethoven and Brahms through Schoenberg and Stravinsky to the
20th and 21st century works written for him. He is a member of the cello
faculty of The Juilliard School, the Mannes College of Music and the
Manhattan School of Music.
