The Easy Concert Pieces series features easy to moderately difficult works for double bass with piano accompaniment. Ordered by difficulty in three volumes, the pieces are suitable for auditions, competitions or exams. The series contains original works by Bottesini, Dragonetti, Gretchaninoff, Hindemith, Laska, Regner, Reinagle, Teppo Hauta-aho and others as well as orchestral excerpts by Beethoven, Dvorak, Haydn, Mahler and arrangements of famous classical masterpieces. All pieces are included on the accompanying audio, as a full version and as a piano accompaniment. Volume 2 (easy to intermediate) contains pieces up to the 3rd position. As some new double bass tutors have a different approach in introducing position changes, volume 2 offers several pieces which reach the 2nd position, some pieces using only 1st and 3rd positions and some more difficult pieces which encompass all positions from half to third position.

The present pieces are intended to help the teacher position playing at an early stage. Having tackled two-part playing with open bass strings n first and second positions, it is possible to attempt two-part playing with open strings in higher positions (without changing position), without encountering technical difficulties.The book concentrates on the most commonly used positions (I-V, VII) and offers two pieces in each position. The song Happy Birthday also requires the ninth position.The exact range of the appropriate position is given above each piece. In the pieces themselves, fingering indications have been avoided to eliminate the danger of relying upon them. The right hand can play apoyando throughout.The addition of a second guitar part (of the same technical standard as the first) makes this book suitable for group teaching as well as for individual lessons. All the pieces may be played as solos (upper part) or as duets.The range of musical styles extends from baroque to folklore and blues and will therefore suit the various preferences of guitar students.
