These twenty-one studies present a variety of melodic themes composed to provide enhancement of technique. I wanted to write short playable pieces designed to build fluency and coordination between the left and right hand. Ialso wanted these technical studies to contain melodic elements sufficient to allow them to be used as short pieces in concert or recital.As valuable as scale practice can be it can also be tedious. I wanted these studiesto be fun to play. I also utilized a variety of major and minor keys and composed the pieces specifically to explore the contrast between open and fingered strings.
