Position Changing for Violin: Violin part

It's simplicity and progression is so good

I learned position changing from this book over 30 years ago and still use it with my own pupils. Despite having bought other more modern-looking tutor books over the years, I still go back to this one. It uses the tried-and-tested 'guide finger' technique, and explains all the steps fully. Once each shift is learned in isolation, the shifts are consolidated in a piece of music for each shift.A great buy for any violin pupil who is moving onto ABRSM Grade 3 standard.

Bought for a friend. She is happy with it

Goes through position shifting from 1st to 3rd position and back (for 1st, 2nd and 3rd fingers). No lovely pictures, so can be boring for little kids, and some of the tunes aren't that great (maybe it is just my daughter's playing!). However excellent exercises that will no doubt prepare her well for grade 3 and beyond.

does what it says on the lid

Great book. My tutor uses it in class. Good warm up exercise before the piece. Challenging but great when 3rd position click.

Really helpful, simple exercises and enjoyable practice pieces

The book is recommended by my son's violin teacher. It is easy to follow and many great pieces for practice.
