This selection of Brahms waltzes has been compiled from the original piano scores and arranged to be played unaccompanied by the solo double bass player.
Each piece presents a study to strengthen the left hand and improve bowing technique, whilst providing a range of challenging sight reading exercises in a variety of key signatures. The pieces are varied in difficulty, with most performed in first, second, or third position, with the added opportunity to practice thumb position for more advanced players.
Suggested bowing included throughout each piece.
The character of each piece allows for application of simple techniques such as staccato and legato bowing, whilst using dynamics ranging from piano to forte, applying crescendos and decrescendos, and practicing simple phrasing.
