Charles Dancla (1817-1907) is considered to be the last great representative of the French Violin School. He knew, in a special way, how to implement the principle no music without technique, no technique without music in his teaching material. This is the case in his easy melodic studies. These studies are perfectly suited for young beginners after the second year, but also for adult players, refreshers or outsiders. Most of them can be effectively used as little performance pieces, providing an excellent foundation for every advanced étude or concert piece.Each study is preceded by new or revised exercises which either deal with specific problems relating to the playing technique or present the tonal material of the respective study in a condensed, playful form.Those who prefer Dancla's somewhat easier original preliminary exercises will find them in the appendix.

Composer's NoteThe study of the violin presents certain difficulties for beginners which are frequently the cause of a sudden abatement in the pupil's zeal and ambition even before he has mastered the first rudiments.The blame for this is commonly laid on the teacher who is called incapable or negligent; losing sight of the fact that the pupil began his studies without the slightest notion not merely of the difficulties to be encountered but also of the regular and assiduous industry indispensable for surmounting them. It is important therefore to smooth these first asperities by showing their utility and making them agreeable; to this end myViolin Method was published and the present Exercises have been written which latter may be considered as forming a supplement to the former. If practiced carefully and intelligently they will serve as a solid foundation for the technique of any player ambitious to become an artist. Franz Wohlfahrt.

30 petites pièces mélodiques et rythmiques p violon/ 30 Short Melodic and Rhythmic Pieces For Violin-Val?rie Bime-Apparailly’s My First Studies To Play Together for Violin. Published by the Editions Leduc Val?rie Bime-Apparailly’s instrumental beginner books – such as ‘Je d?bute le violon’ and ‘Mes premi?res doubles cordes en chansons’ – have enjoyed overwhelming popularity since the day they were published. This excellent educator here turns her attention to the delicate matter of studies: how can these pieces be made less tedious for young violinists? With a crisp clear design enhanced by drawings and carefully crafted explanatory notes the MyFirst Studies To Play Together collection for Violin takes away the dreariness of these pieces giving them beyond their technical importance a musical charm that appeals to 2nd and 3rd year students. The adaptation of the Marche en rondeau which opens Marc-Antoine Charpentier’s ‘Te Deum’ allows players to discover the subtleties of the dal segno; the author also reminds us that this tune gained fame as the Eurovision credits song. These pieces some of which are original some of which borrow from the classical repertoire (Mozart Spohr Beethoven) or from works of great teachers like Charles de B?riot and Fr?d?ric Berr familiarise violinists with musical concepts as basic as syncopation or bowing indications without sacrificing the pleasure of playing music.
