These are instructive etudes and can be played as appealing solo pieces. The studies also resonate very well on the viola if played at pitch. Of course, the etudes can be played using a mixture of positions by more advanced students. Although presented in the traditional order of the circle of fifths, this is where similarities to other violin scale-oriented books end. The etudes in this book offer students a musically and intellectually satisfying means of practicing scales in all major and minor keys, even while remaining in first position.
