Franz Wohlfahrt - 60 Studies, Op 45 Complete for Violin | Essential Violin Etudes and Exercises for Beginners and Intermediate Players | Classical Violin Technique Book for Students and Teachers

I'm only on #10 in my lessons, but this is a GREAT book. Really challenging for me (I've been playing about 3.5 years). My teacher added this book a short while ago, and it is really helping me learn, practice, and refine techniques.

great violin lessons

Good quality

The book is as described. The problems with the misprinted pages have been resolved as my copy does not have those issues.

If you are a beginner/intermediate (my category) who knows your notes/fingerings in first position, this book will be helpful for you to take your playing up a notch. I just started the book, and I enjoy these studies. They are challenging, especially if you work on different bowings, but not so much that you get frustrated. They are musical, so that makes it fun and also helps you know if you're playing them right. I like how they make you go all over the strings, skipping notes. I just started using this book as a supplement to the ABC's of Violin (am just starting the 3rd "advanced" book in that series). I'm doing one etude per week along with my lessons in the ABC book.

The first half of the book is entirely in the 1st position, while the latter half in the 1st 3 positions on the violin. Pro: Some of the etudes sound nice and are fun or semi-fun to play, yet some etudes aren't nice sounding. Con: These etudes are only in the 1st and 3rd positions with almost no practice in the 2nd position or higher positions. With the above in mind, I think (my opinion) these studies will offer a challenge for a 2nd year violinist yet only a small challenge for a 3rd year violinist and minimal challenge for a 4th year violinist.

good practice

Great advanced violin book for my daughter, it has many songs in it that she likes. This book was recommended by her violin teacher and Amazon had it the cheapest. Got here super fast too!

excelente para quem gosta de estudar técnica... recomendo para estudantes Suzuki intermediários

Quick delivery. Arrived in late Sept.

全体的に練習曲はさほど長くなく、難易度もカイザーと比べると低めです。 わりとサクサクすすめられる感じで、カイザーの途中で挫折しそうになった方には良いかもしれません。 テキストに書かれているのは英語とドイツ語だけでしたが、楽譜さえ読めれば特に問題なさそうです。

Bought this almost a year ago but just realised that the book i received has weird paging (extra copies of certain pages while missing certain pages).

Nice book
