Description
Otakar Ševcik’s “Forty Variations for the Violin” op. 3, assembled in one book, occupy a special position in the composer’s extensive oeuvre of teaching material. Here he builds on his op. 2 which he had already dedicated to the systematic, “step by step” development of the bowing technique.
Nonetheless, this volume can be used as a self-contained unit, enlivening the violinist’s daily regimen and offering a concise and highly effective method for mastering the right hand, from elementary exercises to virtuoso technique.
The editor, Pavel Kudelásek, is a teacher at the Prague Conservatory.
