Schott Student Edition - Repertoire

Mostly remembered for his great compositions, during his life Edward Elgar was also a violin teacher. These six short studies, presented in a progressive order of didactic difficulty, are, despite their simplicity, very musical. They can be played in the first position, but require the knowledge of all fingering patterns. The compositions are set in C major, A minor and G major with occasional modulations.
They are ideal practice-pieces to encourage confident reading and playing in various (and often neglected) fingering patterns. At the same time, they promote the understanding of different metres and characters. This edition is part of the new Schott Student Edition series which offers varied literature at five different levels of difficulty, from 1 (easy) to 5 (difficult), for instrumental lessons : In print or electronic format Available as printed editions or PDF download Practising - efficiently and with pleasure : Accompanying tracks of the pieces available as downloads Instrumentation : violin and piano op.
