In The School of Agility, Eugene Levinson lays out a bass-fingering
methodology that reflects a lifetime of experience obtained from
performing and teaching. Levinson is currently Principal Bassist in
the New York Philharmonic and Chairman of the Bass Department
at the Juilliard School.
His teaching method in this book focuses on developing fingerings
that will improve rhythm, intonation, and fingerboard agility:
Fingering is crucial to proper playing. Violinists and cellists
always use each of the four strings on their instruments. Bass
players, even when necessary, seldom do. Instead of crossing
strings in fast passages, there was an inclination to employ
extra shifts and jumps. This, in my opinion, may inhibit
performing efficiency.
