Cello Time Sprinters: A third book of pieces for cello

The pieces in this book are enjoyable to play as not only to they progress you but they are a bit different and fun from my other learner cello books. Comes with CD and my only very slight criticism is that it would have been nice if the CD also had the backing tracks without the cellist.

As an adult returning to the cello, I wanted something beyond the "twinkle twinkle little stat" but having forgotten a lot if technique, was limited in repertoire...This book has been perfect. Really lovely tunes... Decent length and clear methodical approach to the positions etc.The cd is brilliant. Each song recorded twice as separate tracks.. One with and one without the melody, so can be used for both practice and performance.Really lovely, lively music that is inspiring and achievable... Many are featured in grade examsBrilliant purchase for a cellist of about grade 3 standard. Really love this book!!!! .

There are a lot of pieces in first as well as fourth fingering positions. It is a good book for players around grade 3 ABRSM standard, with big variety of musical styles. It also has 2 pieces in grade 4 section A and one piece vrade 4 section B of the Trinity syllabus. Tunes are good. Nice songs with lovely accompaniment that you can use with your practices. The CD is useful for the learner

This is the third Cello Time book I have used, also owning Cello time runners and Cello time christmas. Although I am an adult student, I dont find the books too "child" orientainted, and, if you get really fed up with the playing, you can colour in the fun pictures throughout the books!The CD's are very helpful, as I can play along to those in between lessons, and also play pieces that I have not done with my teacher. I would recommend this series of books for cello students of all ages.

Worth getting the CD version. Although faster than my daughter can play at present, it's something to aspire to whilst giving a stronger sense of timings and rhythms.

Daughter likes it a lot, very fun music pieces

Great product - exactly as described.

Bought as a present and my granddaughter is delighted with it
