Beautiful music
Love Xavier's music and having the YouTube content to help with learning is really helpful.
Also really lovely to listen to him play.

Exellent!
However, I was wrong, I bought twice the same workbook or Basic cello version.
I wanted the notebook with the Diva exercise no. 7.
In which workbook do I find the Diva exercise.
Tank you!

Beginners?
This is an interesting selection of exercises at a very reasonable price but I think most beginners would struggle to connect with them. For those that are up for the challenge there's lots to enjoy here plus a very effective QI code link to a Bass version of the exercise played by Xavier himself. All in all it would recommend these exercises, so long as you're not really a beginner!
