<strong>Hal</strong> <strong>Leonard</strong><br />
Frequently taught in the private studio<br />
as well as in beginning string classes<br />
in schools, Essential Elements 2000 is<br />
a comprehensive method for beginning<br />
violists. Included with the book is a<br />
CD and DVD. The CD covers the first<br />
71 exercises. From the very beginning,<br />
students can model tone production and<br />
technique by listening to a professional<br />
orchestra. The CD can also be used<br />
as a CD-ROM with a PC or Mac<br />
computer to employ SmartMusic ® ,<br />
Finale ® NotePad ® , or Tempo Adjustment (Amazing SlowDowner)<br />
software for practice.<br />
Charles Dancla:<br />
New<br />
36 Melodious and<br />
Easy Studies Op. 84<br />
edited and transcribed for viola by<br />
Julia Müller-Runte and Martin Müller-Runte<br />
Schott<br />
Charles Dancla (1817-1907) is considered to be the<br />
last great representative of the French Violin School.<br />
He knew, in a special way, how to implement the<br />
principle “no music without technique, no technique without music” in<br />
his teaching material. This is the case in his easy melodic studies which<br />
for the first time are available for viola. Each study is preceded by new or<br />
revised exercises which either deal with specific problems relating to the<br />
playing technique, or present the tonal material of the respective study<br />
in a condensed, playful form. Those who prefer Dancla’s somewhat easier<br />
original preliminary exercises will find them in the appendix.<br />
