Cello: A guide to extended techniques — Dylan Messina

TOR / Creation & Teaching / Recommended External Content

“My intent in creating this project was to provide composers of today with a new resource; a technical yet pragmatic guide to writing with extended techniques on the cello. The cello has a wondrously broad spectrum of sonic possibility, yet must be approached in a different way than other string instruments, owing to its construction, playing orientation, and physical mass.”
