A great way for beginning violinists to practice and build up their technique this classic book of exercises has served generations of music students and their teachers. The studies provide practice in string crossing bow strokes shifting and finger patterns.A native and lifelong resident of Leipzig Germany Franz Wohlfahrt (1833–84) studied with one of the world's greatest violinists Ferdinand David. Wohlfahrt's Sixty Studies for the Violin  has remained a mainstay of the beginning violinist's education from the nineteenth century to today. The sixty etudes are divided into two volumes: Volume 1 focuses on studies in the firstposition and Volume 2 advances to third position employing more complex rhythms and bowings. Diligent practice of these studies will improve students' sight reading advance their rhythm skills and prepare them for a more difficult repertoire. Reprint of the G. Schirmer Inc.

Par ADES THOMAS. In Three Studies from Couperin, Thomas Adès empathetically reworks three pieces by the Baroque composer into music that is distinctively Adès without dismissing the source material. The basic structures of harmony and duration in ?Les Amusemens?, ?Les Tours de Passe-passe?, and ?L?Âme-en-Peine? remain unchanged, but the retouching of rhythm, texture and orchestral colours reveals an enthralling music that could be no other composer. The Three Studies has earned critical praise and popularity, having received over 200 public performances in more than 20 countries since its 2006 premiere. ?Three Studies from Couperin, looks at the music as if through a kaleidoscope, the shattered pieces of the original tumbling around like glinting fragments of coloured glass.?

Par FINE ELAINE. Although the practice of scales is essential to building and maintaining strength, technique, tone, and agility?it is very easy to slip into the habit of playing them automatically, without paying attention to how they sound or even being aware of what scale we are playing. The 29 single-page studies in this book are designed to combat that tendency as they are musically, intellectually, and rhythmically challenging.The first 24 studies proceeded through the circle of fifths and address all minor and relative major keys; the last 5 pieces were individually conceived, i.e., apart from the circle of fifths. Occasional fingerings or position guides are suggested but these are largely left to the student or their teachers. No metronome indications are given so that the etudes can be played at individually comfortable tempos?with or without a metronome, or freely as concert etudes. It is the stepwise motion and octave leaps of the etudes that makes the intervals between pitches easy to hear, even in keys with numerous flats or sharps.Just as in Elaine Fine?s more basic scale etude book, Violin Scale Tales, the names of the etudes herein refer to various animals that have scales, including insects, fish, birds, reptiles, a few species of squirrels with scales on their tails, and the solitary pangolin, the only known mammal whose entire body is covered with scales. Again, the author hopes that in addition to experiencing more enjoyable scale practice, students will be inspired to learn more about these amazing creatures, or even write scale studies of their own. / Date parution : 2022-07-20/ Etude / Violon

A fresh take on a time-honored classic, this edition of Wohlfahrt's Op. 45 Studies for Violin (Book I) features newly composed violin teacher accompaniments. Make technical study a fun and collaborative experience. The accompaniments provide an enjoyable introduction to ensemble playing. Playing in duet will sharpen the student's intonation and listening skills. The teacher will be able to coach the student on other aspects of ensemble playing as well, including the importance of subdivision and rhythmic accuracy, how to play a melodic versus an accompaniment line, and how to play through a mistake for the sake of the ensemble. The accompaniments also give the teacher the valuable opportunity to guide the student nonverbally on phrasing, dynamics, and tempo through his or her own playing.Includes a playing score of the duets and a violin insert of the original etudes, a preface on how to incorporate the studies into instruction and practice, and a chart that categorizes the studies by right and left hand technical issues. / Violon

?evcík's complete works cover every area of violin technique, from the elementary level and special exercises on individual technical problems all the way to analytical studies of the standard violin concertos.His 'Preparatory Trill Studies? deal with the placement of the fingers, their pressure on the strings and their action on the fingerboard in elementary positions, proceeding from slow movements to trills.This edition is essentially based on the original print published at the outset of the 20th century, along with other sources from ?evcík's posthumous papers.

Charles Dancla (1817-1907) is considered to be the last great representative of the French Violin School. He knew, in a special way, how to implement the principle no music without technique, no technique without music in his teaching material. This is the case in his easy melodic studies. These studies are perfectly suited for young beginners after the second year, but also for adult players, refreshers or outsiders. Most of them can be effectively used as little performance pieces, providing an excellent foundation for every advanced étude or concert piece.Each study is preceded by new or revised exercises which either deal with specific problems relating to the playing technique or present the tonal material of the respective study in a condensed, playful form.Those who prefer Dancla's somewhat easier original preliminary exercises will find them in the appendix.

?evcík's oeuvre covers every area of violin technique, from the elementary level to special exercises on individual technical problems all the way to analytical studies of the best-known violin concertos.
