Cello Courses
Cello students of all ages and levels are accepted at the NCI. All
levels of the cello repertoire from the beginning through the Major Concertos
will be taught. Students will be placed in courses according to the level of
their current repertoire. The sequence of repertoire in the Suzuki Cello School
will be used to place students.
The following Courses will be offered. Each Course will include these classes
which are held daily through the week:
Warm-up class is a large group class with an emphasis on
fundamental technique.
Lesson class is a small group where each student gets daily
individual instruction.
Ensemble class has a music reading emphasis. (Note: Beginners
do not have an Ensemble class).
