Orchestra Expressions, Book /CD 2, Cello; Brungard (Alfred)

Orchestra Expressions, Book/CD 2 for cello is a continuing string orchestra method by Kathleen DeBerry Brungard and collaborators, published by Alfred. Designed for second-year cello students, this book builds on the skills introduced in Book 1 while expanding note reading, rhythm, tone production, bow control, intonation, shifting readiness, and ensemble awareness. The method uses a music literacy-based approach with songs, exercises, theory activities, and musical examples that help developing cellists connect reading skills with confident playing. CD support provides practice reinforcement for listening, rhythm, and performance preparation. Useful for school orchestra programs, private lessons, and at-home practice, this cello method gives students a structured path for continued growth in string playing.
