Based primarily on the scale practice routine of Jascha Heifetz, this compilation of two previous Mel Bay violin scale books includes all forms of major and minor scales and arpeggios in every key including double-stop scales in 3rds, 6ths, octaves, fingered octaves, and 10ths played both together and separately. Chromatic scale fingerings are also included. In addition, each scale utilizes several different bowing techniques.We believe this to be the most efficient, thorough, and clearly laid out violin scale book available. Fingerings for the scales are directly applicable to repertoire and are not merely repetitious patterns designed for easy memorization. All scales are completely written to help develop reading skills, making them appropriate for both intermediate and advanced students.This scale book tops them all. It's the finest scale book on the market today. I believe it will become the most important book of its kind.-George Perlman -Violinist, Composer, Pedagogue
