Scales: Scales and Scale Studies for the Violin by Simon Fischer
Scales: Scales and Scale Studies for the Violin by Simon Fischer s a scale book of unprecedented scope. Simon Fischer has developed an entirely new method in which, using traditional ways of practicing scales as a departure, he focuses on numerous often neglected aspects of the violinist's technique. For every element he has designed exercises that sensitize the ear, stimulate the mind, and build the playing apparatus of the violinist. Scales by Simon Ficher incorporates the idea that scales are built up gradually, in order to develop good intonation. Taking this approach beyond that developed by Carl Flesch in The Art of Violin Playing, each scale is also preceded by studies built up using the tonic, third, fifth and seventh. An extensive system of "held-down finger lines" further helps intonation and left-hand stability.
