The series “Cello around the World” worked out by Mikhail Utkin, would be most interesting for pupils of junior and senior level, so as their teachers.
Mikhail Utkin — cellist-soloist, teacher, disciple of great Mstislav Rostropovich, participant of the glorious “Moscow Trio”, having toured all over Russia and more than 50 foreign countries.
The first issue of the series is wholly based on the first positions to be constructed, while beginning with the second issue the range of cello means is enlarged and complicated. The fingering pointed in the cello part is one of many possible variants; therefore the author considers the teachers should pick up fingering individually for every student.
