The Grade by Grade series draws on the rich and diverse Boosey & Hawkes catalogue of classical, contemporary and educational repertoire, featuring composers such as Serge Prokofiev, Dmitri Shostakovich, Karl Jenkins, Carol Barratt and Christopher Norton, as well as arrangements of traditional music from around the world by Peter Wastall, Edward Huws Jones and others.

Carefully selected by Cathy Elliott, this handy anthology provides the complete repertoire resource for aspiring Level 2 double bass players, making the perfect package for teaching, exam preparation, and performance.

Each volume contains:

a diverse collection of pieces, each supplemented by a useful practice and performance tip.
scales and arpeggios that are connected to the repertoire through tailor-made texts and exercises.
brand new reading, music theory and improvisation activities.
newly commissioned tasks on ear training.
a piano booklet.

Sample recordings as well as material on ear training for the respective level are available as stream or download.

Cathy Elliott is a freelance double bass player. For twenty years she toured intensively and produced recordings with the Academy of St Martin in the Fields. Since the early 90s, she has arranged and published a thriving teaching career with beginners and advanced learners aged 6 to 18, for whom she continuously writes, arranges and publishes repertoire. She is a speaker for various examination boards, and in 2009 she was recognized by the International Society of Bassists as an ambassador for young bassists.
