Brilliant and fun way to improve your playing.
Love these exercises, fun to play and beautiful to listen to for others around, which is a bonus 😆 I feel improvement in my playing already (precision, intonation, bow control, confidence). You are very talented. Thank you for sharing with the rest of us.

Fun exercises
I am really enjoying playing these exercises on cello, working on a couple at a time to get down well. Love the different rhythms to try and variations of melody/harmony - just perfect for intermediate player. Appreciate the videos too, so helpful to hear it first, or check if what you're playing is accurate. So generous an offer at a sale price, worth having in your library. Thank you Xavier! You are an inspiration doing all this on bass.
