ColourStrings Cello ABC: Book E continues the Cello ABC series. Book E
teaches the new material, the 5 dierent pentachords, using numerous folk
songs and chamber music works. Teachers should choose the music that best
suits their pedagogical aims and needs.
The new element, the minor 2nd interval was introduced by adding the FA and
TI notes. Later on these are expanded into the four types of tetrachrods
(Major, Minor, Phrygian, Lydian). Melodies based on these tone sets
(including folk song arrangements) help develop the students' taste and sense
of musical character (which is the foundation for understanding the music of
the 20th century). The precise and interesting ngerings aid their sense of
pitch.
The four types of tetrachords are: DO-RE-MI-FA = SO-LA-TI-DO (major)
RE-MI-FA-SO = LA-TI-DO-RE (minor) MI-FA-SO-LA = TI-DO-RE-MI (Phrygian)
FA-SO-LA-TI (Lydian) with three major 2nd intervals
