Description

SKU M060139840

The Grade By Grade series draws on the rich and varied Boosey & Hawkes catalogue of classical, contemporary and educational repertoire, highlighting composers including Serge Prokofieff, Dmitri Shostakovich, Karl Jenkins, Carol Barratt and Christopher Norton, alongside arrangements of traditional music from around the world by Peter Wastall, Vera Gray and others.

Carefully selected by Janet Way, this practical anthology provides the complete repertoire resource for the aspiring Grade 5 double bassists and creates the perfect package for teaching, exam preparation and performance.

Each volume contains:
• a selection of pieces & short studies, each complemented by a useful practice and performance tip
• grade-appropriate scales and arpeggios linked to the repertoire through bespoke text and exercises
• brand new sight-reading and improvisation activities
• newly-commissioned aural awareness tasks
• a piano accompaniment booklet

Full performance demonstrations, piano accompaniment tracks and grade-appropriate aural awareness resources available online.

Cathy Elliott is a freelance double bassist. For twenty years she toured extensively and produced recordings with the Academy of St Martin in the Fields. Since the early 1990s she has had a thriving teaching career with beginners and advanced students aged 6 to 18, for whom she continually writes, arranges and publishes repertoire. She is a speaker for various examination boards, and in 2009 she was recognized by the International Society of Bassists as an ambassador for young bassists.
