 SPEED WEEK CELLO BOOTCAMP- April, 2024

"Speed week was amazing! To have all the essentials for scale and arpeggio speed work assembled in one place plus taught in a challenging yet accessible way was so worth attending. The manner in which you taught Speed Week made it not only accessible to all levels, but provided a roadmap to use in solo practice. I especially appreciate the replay recordings because I was not able to attend all workshops in person. Many thanks to you for the effort, hard work and love you to put into this program!"

-Peggy M.; Madison, WI 

"I enjoyed, and benefitted from Speed Week very much!  Your lessons were well planned, and the pace was lively and kept me involved.  Your presentation helped me understand how  finger exercises and scale practice can be a staple in building skills I need to perform the music I take on.  Your class gave me a "road map" to follow on my journey to take on the faster passages I meet along the way.  Merci, Marcie!"

-Jane G.; San Jose, CA

"I've really been enjoying Speed Cello Bootcamp. Not only am I getting faster, but I'm also finding other things to work on as I go through the exercises..

Thank you again...It has all been very helpful..."

-William K., Boston, MA
