Each day we will explore a different aspect of cello technique, such as “Right-Hand Technique,” “Mastering Thumb Position/Mapping the Cello,” and “Mastering Rhythm.” Students will also have an opportunity to perform with an all-cello ensemble at the final concert which will take place at 6 pm on Friday, June 26, 2009.
