Position Pieces for Cello; Book 2 fills the pedagogical gap between the first book of Position Pieces and the two Thumb Position for Cello books in that it covers the fifth; sixth; and seventh positions. Position Pieces for Cello; Book 2 systematically introduces ways to find the correct location of each position and also to understand the various finger patterns required. As with Mr. Mooneys other books; this is accomplished in an enjoyable and creative manner through the use of cello duets. With titles like "Surfing Cellos;" "Jumping Flea;" and "The Happy Certified Public Accountant;" these pieces are really fun for students to play! This book will prove to be an indispensable tool for intermediate level cello students.

It is a bit heavy on the newspaper industry in general so be prepared.4 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Fascinating! Ill read it again to gird myself against the NeanderthalsBy Rudi FrankeWhat a fantastic woman! This is someone of whom the feminists should be proud. This was the era in journalism in which it seems it was still worth reading newspapers and Cissy came from a long line of Chicago-born newspaper owners with "ink in their blood". Any one around the world. especially Chicagoans will find this interesting reading as the two families involved owned major newspapers in Chicago. New York. and Washington D.C. that greatly influenced their readers at that time. Its important to know that Cissy took over a Washington paper from Hearst that was an under-performer and doubled its circulation when the old timers at the paper expected for her to fail. Want to know how she did it and which influential unfortunates became her prey? Buy this book and find out. you wont be disappointed. For those of you who cant read too well. its an easy read and it has pictures!
