Here are some pre-Twinkle songs to lay the foundations of cello playing.

1. Ants

2. Hear the Bells

3. Hoedown

4. The Twinkle Rhythms and the DAD Song

Note: Variation B is the last variation I teach.

5. The Twinkle Marathon

The Twinkle Marathon consists of all four variations and the theme. The student waits and listens while the teacher plays the introductions. During the variation itself, the student plays the melody while the teacher plays the harmony.
