Galamian/Neumann - Contemporary Violin Technique, Book 1 - Galaxy Edition

I find it interesting that there are two camps for studying scales . . . the Galamian folks vs the Carl Flesch folks. The two do not intersect and each camp has issues with the other camp. It all depends on the technique that your teacher wants you to develop, so chances are great that your teacher was in the same camp as the scales that they assign to you. I love Galamian.

Recommended by my daughter's violin teacher, she's been using this book with excellent results for some time. Unless you're very knowledgeable, you'll need to use this book as a teaching tool with a professional instructor or you'll just be running through technique without fully mastering them.

Galamian. period. (These drills honed the skills of the best violinists alive today.) Well set on the page. A bit hard to decipher without a teacher explaining some of the directions...

The layout of the book is sometimes hard to navigate because you have to search for the keys of the scales.

Muy bien productos, ningún problema con el envío o proveedor.

Good basic scales and arpeggios

this is the other book my grandsons college professor recommended and he found it to be quite useful, glad you had it available

At USD44 I would have expected better paper, better binding, and a hard cover. Overpriced.Think of your money as a contribution towards the intellectual contribution of the Galamian and Neumann team.
