Written by Janice Tucker Rhoda , author of the popular ABCs of Strings method, the Complete Technique For Double Bass series is designed for advanced beginners to upper level students wishing to learn or improve their left hand and right arm bow skills. Starting in first position, and proceeding carefully through the higher positions, these method books use short studies to demonstrate specific technical ideas.
