The Korena take
Built for double bass instruction, New Directions for Strings: Double Bass A Position Book 1 combines playing material with posture, listening, theory, and composition work. Its tetrachord-centered sequence addresses left-hand frame and finger patterns in relation to keys, while ensemble material appears early and continues through the book. Two contrasting bass solos add individual repertoire, and the supporting teacher resources make it practical for an organized instructional setting.
