LESSONS

Intro

I have included a bunch of lessons I have done over the years below. Please feel free to check them out.  I would like to give special mention of maybe the most comprehensive series of video cello lessons on the web: those by David Finckel.  These 5+ minutes mini videos are clearly conceived and informative. They work well whether you are going through them one-by-one, or you're simply looking for a way to spice up a practice session with a few chosen at random.  David calls them "Cello Talks" and you can find them here. Well worth the time!

Contemporary Cello Etudes

I contributed one etude to this newish compendium of etudes. Very interesting stuff. I think it’s worth a look.

Video Lessons

"Making It Count" is a series of short videos each featuring one small thing you can add to your practicing regimen. The idea is that it's not the amount of hours you put in but the quality of the time you spend working--making the time count!
