Die sechsbandige ,,Systematische Violintechnik" behandelt alle Aspekte des Violinspiels und ermoglicht damit eine umfassende Grundlage fur lernende, lehrende und ausubende Musiker. .Die Bande enthalten reichhaltige Anregungen fur die vernunftige und einwandfreie Aufbereitung von technisch anspruchsvollen Passagen in Meisterwerken der Musik. Die einfache Idee, die Violintechnik auf der Kombination von Bogenwechseln, Saitenwechseln, Fingerwechseln und Lagenwechseln aufzubauen, wird systematisch entwickelt und stellt - vergleichbar einer ,,Hausapotheke fur Geiger" - ein Konzentrat zielgerichtet anwendbarer Ubungen zur Verfugung. Gleichzeitig verschafft diese Systematische Violintechnik einen vollstandigen und unverzichtbaren Uberblick uber alle Bestandteile der Technik und ihrer Zusammenhange. Wohldurchdachtes und praxiserprobtes Ubungsmaterial aus der Feder von Prof. Helmut Zehetmair (Mozarteum Salzburg) und Prof. Benjamin Bergmann (Johannes Gutenberg Universitat Mainz).

A beautiful and wide-ranging collection of 41 great tunes from all over Argentina. This collection features tangos, milongas, chamames, chacareras, zambas and gatos as well as earlier styles and new compositions. Many pieces are presented as duets and there is the opportunity for the solo violinist to play along with the guitar or bandoneon and second violin accompaniment on the MP3 backing tracks. Summaries of the individual tunes and detailed notes on the music of Argentina enable you to get the best out of this exciting and colourful music. All pieces were recorded by Ros Stephen and are available as MP3 files for free download. The edition is suitable for players of level 3 and above.

"I would recommend this volume to anyone interested in exploring traditional music." (Sarah Kekus (Chair National Association of Music Educators [NAME] 2010-11)

"This is a really appealing book, and great value for money." (The Strad)

"Additionally, all pieces are expertly played by violinist Stephen. Her extensive notes on the different styles and tunes enable one to get the best out of this colourful and exciting music." (Australian Strings Association Journal, Stringendo)

After playing hundreds of events throughout the years I have finally put some of my personal arrangements down on paper. This version of Air eliminates the sul G and replaces it with more lush chords. It is a solo violin version that works great for weddings and other events. This is both a challenging work to practice a multitude of chords and a great performance piece.

For those who are still progressing, the chords can be omitted where needed to make the piece more approachable.

The Wellerman sea shanty arranged for solo violin by Alison Gillies.


Get on board with the Tik Tok sea shanty craze with this arrangement. The key (C minor) is the same as the original videos so you can even play along with them if you so wish! Soon may the Wellerman come!
