Fifteen Intermediate Etudes

Opus 76

David H. Popper

Adapted for Saxophone

By

William R. Higgins


2/25

David H. Popper ( June 16 , 1843 August 7 , 1913) was a

Bohemian cellist and composer. He was born in Prague, and

studied music at the Prague Conservatory. Popper was one of

the last great cellists who did not use an end pin. He composed

many works for the cello which today are performed by cellists

all over the world. Popper is also famous for his High School

of Cello Playing (Op. 73), a book of cello etudes that is used

almost universally by advanced cello students. His Opus 76

contains 15 etudes in preparation for his High School of Cello

Playing.
