Applebaum: String Builder, 3rd And 5th Position, Violin

Category: Violin ** Composer: Applebaum, Samuel ** Title: 3rd and 5th Position String Builder ** Publisher: Belwin/Mills Publication ** Difficulty: 2-3.

Applebaum's String Builder series is designed for use as a group method (violin, viola, cello, and bass together) or as a comprehensive individual method. Each piece progresses smoothly up in difficulty, introducing and shaping technique at a gentle pace. Melodies were selected to be interesting to the student as well as educational. String Builder, Third and Fifth Position, is intended for use following String Builder Book 3, and before String Builder Second and Fourth Position. Beyond introducing additional left hand positions, this book includes instruction in a number of new bowing techniques.
