Shifting Development Studies: Teachers of advanced students will welcome this well-organized approach to shifting. Shifting ideas are introduced and classified into one of four general categories to perfect fluency , balance and accuracy in moving from one position to another. Specially selected etudes have been edited by Dr. Magers to reinforce shifting techniques. Bowing Development Studies: An essential tool to string playing is the bow. This l08-page volume illustrates through photos, exercises, etudes and classical literature, four basic bow hold settings, how they are executed, and the articulations produced naturally when using these settings. A partial list of the etude composers includes Campagnoli, Fiorillo, Kayser, Rode , Sitt, and Tartini. A vailable from your favorite music retailer. Igos NEIL A. KJOS MUSIC COMPANY· Publisher
