Violin Scales: Fingerboard Mastery for the Modern Violinist

By Harry Hunt Jr

Do you like to shift?

If the answer is yes or no, Violin Scales: Fingerboard Mastery for the Modern Violinist is for you!

This is a violin scale book focused on 'shifting' and gaining experience and confidence for playing in higher positions.

First position is like being tied to an anchor for most string players. Violinists only shift to upper positions when necessary.

But...if you are looking to get more creative on the violin through contemporary music, improvisation, and experimentation, this book contains exercises that will give you the wings to fly and soar past 1st position.

This is an advanced violin scale book aimed to help violinists become comfortable with shifting to different positions in both written and improvised music. This book is not for beginners.

There are five main sections of this book

Four Positions (major and minor pentatonic scales in 4 positions)Octave Position (major modes and pentatonics through octave position)One String Exercises (arpeggio & pentatonic exercises on one string)Two-Finger Position (major scales using only two fingers and shifting)Mountain Climbing (gradual shifitng to slowly climb to higher positions)

The violin world is changing. Violinists are experimenting with new ideas, improvisation, and contemporary genres.

Violin Scales: Fingerboard Mastery for the Modern Violinist is giving advanced players the tools they need to incorporate classical chops into a modern world!
