Review: Great book! - I’ve been needing to practice violin more but I don’t have much material to practice so I got this book. If you are a beginner, take caution. Some of these pieces can be playable for beginners while others can be much more difficult. (For reference, although I am not an advanced violinist, I have been playing for 7 years.) I included a video to show an idea of the type of music in this book. Overall, I think that this is a good book to have. Review: Advanced Violin Exercises - If you want to really give your fingers a workout, practice Kreutzer. It challenges your fingers and helps when playing other complicated passages. ## Features - Pages: 72 - Instrumentation: Violin ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #37,943 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #13 in Violin Songbooks #23 in Violins (Books) #26 in Opera & Classical Songbooks | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 651 Reviews | ## Images ![Kreutzer: 42 Studies or Caprices for Violin | Intermediate to Advanced Violin Sheet Music Collection | Classical Etudes for Technique and Bowing ...
