The second lesson book in the trailblazing new Koeppen Cello Method, putting the emphasis on having fun with your cello!

Taking a playful and effective approach to learning the cello, the Koeppen Cello Method breaks new ground, sprucing up the usual Baroque and Classical repertoire by adding pieces in popular styles: rock, bossa nova, reggae, swing and more!
