Ideal for lessons, concerts, or personal enjoyment, the pieces in volume 1 are playable in the neck position and structured in two levels: Elementary (Grades 1–3) and Intermediate (Grades 4–5). Carefully edited from first editions and manuscripts, with editorial guidance, fingerings, and bowings by Magdalena König and Susanne Paul, the anthology makes a meaningful contribution towards establishing works by women composers as a core part of the cello repertoire.
