Par Wohlfahrt Franz / Case Jennifer (Arr.). Franz Wohlfahrt (1833 - 1884), a violin teacher in Leipzig Germany, wrote several series of etudes including 60 Studies for Violin, Opus 45 from which this book of mandolin studies was derived. Originally composed for his own teaching purposes, over the past 100 years Wohlfahrt's etudes have become standard works for beginning violin study the world over. Adapted for mandolin in standard notation and tablature, some violin techniques had to be altered to make these studies accessible to mandolinists. The resulting book contains progressively arranged compositional gems that include scale, tremolo, arpeggio, and position studies plus grace notes, double-stops and other techniques-all terrific sight-reading material at an intermediate to advanced level. / Niveau : Moyen-Difficile / Date parution : 2020-02-20/ Etude / Mandoline
