Violin Solo - Level 4 - SKU: A0.1512713 Composed by Steven Kruse & Penny Thompson Kruse. 19th Century,20th Century,Classical,Instructional,Traditional. 47 pages. String Play for All #1087663. Published by String Play for All (A0.1512713). It has long been accepted practice that, after first position, the next positions a violin or viola student learns are third and fifth positions. There is a good reason for studying the odd-numbered positions first. The body of the instrument and the crook of the neck provide solid reference points for finding these positions. Hamonically, first, third, and fifth position outline the triad, the foundation of Western tonal music. The fingering of fifth position matches first position, making it easy to learn. It is unfortunate that this focus on third and fifth position has often been at the cost of any discussion of the even positions: 2, 4, 6, and 8. This is evident in the traditional etudes and study material available for violin and viola. With the new tonal demands of twentieth and twenty-first century music, knowledge and familiarity with the entire fingerboard has become essential.LIke the relationship in fingering between first and third position, the same relationship can be found between second and sixth and fourth and eighth positions. We have chosen to introduce these positions together, with melodies that can be played in both positions. Shifting exercises between the even positions are also provided. We hope teachers and students will find this material useful.
