Scales and Arpeggios for Violin

Scales and Arpeggios for Violin

Edited by Boris Kipnis

The scales and arpeggios in this book are arranged in the semitone system. All the scales start and end on the G string. The scales are categorized into three groups: 1. Four-octave scales starting with the open G string. 2. Four-octave scales starting with the 1st finger (G sharp [A flat] to B). 3. Three-octave scales starting with the 2nd finger (C to F sharp [G flat]). This kind of grouping will help violinists to systematize the fingering of the scales and to master their fingerboard skills. It will also be helpful in everyday technical work. Available in print format.
