In The School of Agility, Eugene Levinson lays out a bass-fingeringmethodology that reflects a lifetime of experience obtained fromperforming and teaching. Levinson is currently Principal Bassist inthe New York Philharmonic and Chairman of the Bass Departmentat the Juilliard School.His teaching method in this book focuses on developing fingeringsthat will improve rhythm, intonation, and fingerboard agility:Fingering is crucial to proper playing. Violinists and cellistsalways use each of the four strings on their instruments. Bassplayers, even when necessary, seldom do. Instead of crossingstrings in fast passages, there was an inclination to employextra shifts and jumps. This, in my opinion, may inhibitperforming efficiency.
