An advanced-level violin method supplement for both professional and amateur violinists. The studies in this book are more intensive and powerful than most traditional violin studies. Double-stop trills are introduced here for technical training, and the finger stretching exercises for the left hand are pushed to the limit. The mixed single-stops, double-stops, and chords are also highly effective bowing exercises. All these innovative studies offer a great opportunity for students to build up their technique more efficiently. In some studies, a new synthesis of Eastern and Western music is shown, unveiling a new type of music to Western audience.

The Sonata à violin solo (M.S. 83) is an early work by Paganini that can be ascribed to the years 1796-1800, a period which includes works such as the posthumous Grande concerto (M.S. 75), the Inno patriottico con variazioni (M.S. 81) and the Tema variato (M.S. 82)for violin. There are no doubts as to the authenticity of the work: the highly virtuosic experimental writing, the indications “Organetto” and “Flagioletto” and the use of the fourth string are all distinctive traits found in Paganini's writing from this period which link the Sonata to the Inno patriottico con variazioni and the Tema variato. The most significant characteristics of this composition are its length and the three-movement structure that connect it to the Classical style, at least far as the first movement is concerned: it is written in sonata form, something rarely seen in Paganini's solo violin works.

String Thang by Mark Wood is based on the twelve-bar blues. The blues has deep roots in American history, developed out of the work songs and chants of African-American slaves. The Great Migration of the first half of the 20th century saw freed slaves and their descendants move to northern and eastern parts of the U.S., taking their music with them. The blues took on different forms; in turn it helped to create rock, jazz, hip-hop, and other popular genres. A twelve-bar blues uses a repeating chord progression which allows musicians to express themselves creatively with each recurrence. If anything defines the blues, it is the use of blue notes---pitches that don't usually belong in a given key---and elements of improvisation.
