Book 1. Par SEVCIK OTAKAR. Otakar ?evcík's op. 2 is a fundamental tutor for teaching the violin. It focuses on the elementary problems of right-hand technique which ?evcík practises in 4,000 variants of systematically organized exercises for all bowings. This famous tutor has remained in use to the present day and is equally valued by players of other string instruments. The distinguished cellist Tomá? Jamník has arranged the 'School of Bowing Technique? for the violoncello, taking into account its differences from the violin. He has transcribed individual exercises for the violoncello without neglecting ?evcík's original pedagogical aims. As a result, this edition differs fundamentally from the only known cello arrangement of this opus by Louis R. Feuillard./ Etude / Violoncelle

60 studies for the development of the left hand and the technique of the bow. Par VOLMER BERTA. This volume of studies is intended not only as a supplement to the 'Viola Method' but also, in the coise and varying difficulties of its contents, to be of value to every student of the Viola. These studies which have been extracted from the multitude of excellent etudes for the Violin for their varying technical problems have been chosen with special regard for their suitability to the Viola. The order in which the student works at these studies is left to his, or his teacher's discretion, and therefore as it is not proposed that the book is worked through from beginning to end but that each technical problem is overcome by the most suitable exercise. Unklike hitherto existing collections the technique of the instrument is divided under 7 main headings. As the bowing exercises are in no way exhaustive space has been left for the student or teacher to devise his own./ Etude / Alto
