Gilels - Daily Exercises for the Violonist

This manual is intended primarily for violin students at Music Schools and Conservatories. The scales and arpegios have been arranged in chromatic order. Teachers and students may augment the alternative bowing and gingering suggestions with those of their own, according to the object of the exercise.

If the fingering appears unusual at times, this is eitheir due to the logical desire for a consistent fingering for all scales or is intended to increase the flexibility of the left hand in some particular way.

The scale passages in the higher positions have been included separately to enable the difficulties experienced in playing quick scales over four octaves to be more easily mastered.

It is recommended to vary the exercises by taking four, eight or sixteen notes to a bow.
