Good piece to learn

This piece I hear will come up in auditions for college and beyond. An instructor (a member of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra) said that this is one of the pieces they ask to play during auditions for major orchestras.

Nice edition

These three volumes are the best edition of the cello suites for bass. The fingerings work for most people, though there are many other options and the printed markings can sometimes get in the way.

Bass Music

The music was more complicated than anticipated, but definitely a good challenge.
