Scales and Arpeggios with Shifting Practice - Moyer - Violin - Book
Additional Photos:
Author: Cindy Moyer
Format: Book
Instrumentation: Violin
Only rarely does a new publication emerge that bridges a genuine gap in string pedagogy with clarity and effectiveness. This method facilitates the intermediate student's progress from introductory studies to the comprehensive systematic approaches of Ivan Galamian and Carl Flesch. In addition to accommodating--conceptually and visually--both fundamental fingering systems, Dr. Moyer distils for isolated practice the essential elements of shifting and left-hand position unique to or common among each chromatic key. An excellent resource for the novice pedagogue as well as for highly-experienced artist-teachers.
Reviews:
"I believe the text would be an excellent preparatory book to either Galamian or Flesch scale studies. I especially like the shifting practice exercises for both sets of fingerings. This is the most unique and compelling value to the text. No other text includes these exercises." - Robert Gillespie, Professor of String Education and String Pedagogy, The Ohio State University
"It is well thought out and successfully addresses important gaps in standard scale books. Including parenthetical notes to remind the player of good hand positioning for shifts is an interesting idea. I particularly like the section introducing double stops, where she spells out the steps that will build a solid mastery of the skill. I would definitely use and recommend this book." - Penny Brill, Violist, Pittsburgh Symphony
"I think it would be a terrific addition to a viola teacher's pedagogical tools and the violist's library. The book is thorough in its method without being overwhelming. It's clear to see how this book would foster a systematic development of crucial foundational skills." - Joanna Mendoza, Violist, Arianna String Quartet; Associate Professor of Music, University of MissouriSt. Louis
"I honestly think it's the best viola scale book I've ever seen. I've always found Flesch to be overkill for what violists need, and this book would adequately train a violist with all the scale, arpeggio, and double-stop technique he or she would ever need." - Robert Meyer, NYC freelance violist, chamber musician, studio teacher, founding member of the New Fromm Players
