  • Challenging but love it
Format: Paperback
I'm only on #10 in my lessons, but this is a GREAT book. Really challenging for me (I've been playing about 3.5 years). My teacher added this book a short while ago, and it is really helping me learn, practice, and refine techniques.

If you are a beginner/intermediate (my category) who knows your notes/fingerings in first position, this book will be helpful for you to take your playing up a notch. I just started the book, and I enjoy these studies. They are challenging, especially if you work on different bowings, but not so much that you get frustrated. They are musical, so that makes it fun and also helps you know if you're playing them right. I like how they make you go all over the strings, skipping notes. I just started using this book as a supplement to the ABC's of Violin (am just starting the 3rd "advanced" book in that series). I'm doing one etude per week along with my lessons in the ABC book. ... show more

  • OK studies for 2nd year to 3rd year violin student.
Format: Paperback
The first half of the book is entirely in the 1st position, while the latter half in the 1st 3 positions on the violin. Pro: Some of the etudes sound nice and are fun or semi-fun to play, yet some etudes aren't nice sounding. Con: These etudes are only in the 1st and 3rd positions with almost no practice in the 2nd position or higher positions. With the above in mind, I think (my opinion) these studies will offer a challenge for a 2nd year violinist yet only a small challenge for a 3rd year violinist and minimal challenge for a 4th year violinist. ... show more
