E-Book Description:
Description from the Author:
These Melodies were written over the span of a year on the train from Fontainbleau to Paris. I had a need for a book that would bridge the gap between my "Chanson pour les Jeunes Violonistes" book to the Vivaldi A minor concerto and the Kayser etudes book. I did not like the available possibilities so I decided to write my own.
I reviewed the Vivaldi op.3 no.6 A minor concerto and Kayser etudes with the following question in mind; what does a student need to be able to do mechanically to be successful in these works. For each area that I found I wrote a Melody that would lead to the acquisition of that skill. This generally took about a week and then I would test it on my older students at the Conservatoire Maurice Ravel de Levallois Peret where I taught in Paris.
When I finished I had composed 16 Melodies. I now thought great but I did not really in-depth address shifting, either into other positions or the gesture itself. So I wrote the 8short shifts section of the book. Each short shift is to be played first in 1st position and then with the indicated fingerings. Inside you will find the specific reason for each of the Melodies with as well helpful hints as to how to use them. They follow the key order of A major / D major / G major / B flat major / E flat major. Dynamics are added progressively throughout the Melodies starting with very simple ones in Melodies I and II. I composed these Melodies and short shifts over twenty-five years ago and have been using them with much success ever since. Here's hoping that you find them as useful as I have.
