The Exercise Book (Intermediate)

Brilliant and fun way to improve your playing.

Love these exercises, fun to play and beautiful to listen to for others around, which is a bonus 😆 I feel improvement in my playing already (precision, intonation, bow control, confidence). You are very talented. Thank you for sharing with the rest of us.

Fun exercises

I am really enjoying playing these exercises on cello, working on a couple at a time to get down well. Love the different rhythms to try and variations of melody/harmony - just perfect for intermediate player. Appreciate the videos too, so helpful to hear it first, or check if what you're playing is accurate. So generous an offer at a sale price, worth having in your library. Thank you Xavier! You are an inspiration doing all this on bass.

Funny and interesting!

I am a violin teacher and concert performer. The exercises are interesting and definitely enjoyable and fun to play! The only downside is the harmonics in Studies Nos. 3, 6, and 9. It’s clear they weren’t originally written for the violin because many of the harmonics can’t be played. Perhaps they should be reworked specifically for the instrument’s technique. In any case, great work!
