ReviewsCello Secrets manages to take on the complex and rich world of cello playing and present a concise, whimsical and engaging travel guide, navigating its entirety. Filled with useful insights, the book addresses the myriad principles of cello playing with clear insights and methods to improve anyone's playing and pedagogical skills., This book is an outstanding resource for advanced students and professionals. It can be either a great tool for students or a great tool for professionals and more advanced players to achieve and maintain good practice habits. The strategies are good for all instrumentalists, but the cello information is specific, clearly explained, and truly valuable., "While the art of musical interpretation often seems highly subjective, almost every other aspect of instrumental playing--technique, body mechanics, performance psychology--can be analyzed, discussed, and clarified.

Eliminating myths and perceived technical mysteries allows each of us to move closer to transcending the cello and fully achieving our artistic aims." --Brant Taylor, cellist in the Chicago Symphony "Cello Secrets manages to take on the complex and rich world of cello playing and present a concise, whimsical and engaging travel guide, navigating its entirety.
