The book includes three octave major, melodic minor, harmonic minor, arpeggios, broken 3rds, and chromatic scales. Double-stops in octaves, thirds, sixths, and harmonics are presented in two octaves.

This is the economic (perfect binding) version of this book. For spiral bound version go to lulu.com/shop. Most books written on violin scales do not go into depth on individual scale studies. They merely show a scale and its fingering and move on to the next scale. This book was written to provide a deeper and more interesting way of studying individual scales. This book covers 10 one-octave scales and 3 two-octave scales: all within the first position. Each scale has 35 different variations. Each variation was designed to both reinforce the fingering and intonation and to stop the violin student from practicing the scale the same way every time. The variations provide new ways of practicing the scales to reinforce the learning process from many different angles and to engage the mind during scale practice.

One-octave scales in double-stop octaves, 3rds, 6ths, and harmonics are presented in all twelve keys. Preparatory shifting exercises, bowing and rhythmic variants, a helpful circle of 5ths, and progress chart make this the perfect beginning scale book for every violin student.

(String Method). Introducing the Positions , a series widely used in classroom and private studio, represents a critical "next step" for string students.

An irreplaceable component for every string student's training!
