Ausgabe für Violoncello, mit Online-Audio Materialien. Schwierigkeitsgrad: mittel.

Die vielseitige Cellistin Renata Bratt hat das ultimative Buch für den Fiddle-Cellisten geschrieben, diesmal aus der Perspektive eines Begleiters. Hier findet man die theoretischen und technischen Grundlagen um Lead-Spieler in einer Fiddle-Jam-Session kreativ zu unterstützen, ganz zu schweigen davon, selbst als Lead-Spieler zu spielen.

Diese progressive Methode beinhaltet detaillierte Fingersätze und Strichbezeichnungen für traditionelle Fiddle Jam-Stücke wie Salt Creek, Jenny Dang the Weaver, The Water Is Wide, The Girl I left Behind Me, The Road to California, Mason's Apron und Green Grows the Laurel - sowie drei Jigs und ein Slip-Jig. Zu den Begleitelementen gehören ein Akkord-Ton-Backup, der Bluegrass-Bass-Stil, 2- und 3-Ton-Akkorde und Arpeggios in den üblichen Fiddling Tonarten, ein- und zweitaktige rhythmische Streichermuster, der Charleston-Rhythmus, der Reise-Beat und viele Variationen der beliebten Chop-Bogentechnik. Mit dem Wissen und der Erfahrung, die in diesem Buch vermittelt werden, kann ein Cellist zu einer wertvollen Bereicherung für jede Musikgruppe werden, unabhängig vom Stil! Enthalten sind außerdem ein Zugang zu 100 Online-Audiotracks, die von der Autorin fachgerecht eingespielt wurden.
