Otakar Ševčík

Exercises pour préparer et développer le trille op. 7

> Fundamental pedagogical work by a leading violin teacher
> With methodological notes by the editor (Cz/Eng/Ger)
> Moderate to advanced level of difficulty

Sevcík's complete works cover every area of violin technique, from the elementary level and special exercises on individual technical problems all the way to analytical studies of the standard violin concertos.

His 'Preparatory Trill Studies' deal with the placement of the fingers, their pressure on the strings and their action on the fingerboard in elementary positions, proceeding from slow movements to trills.

This edition is essentially based on the original print published at the outset of the 20th century, along with other sources from Sevcík's posthumous papers. The editor, Jaroslav Foltyn, is a professor of violin at Prague Conservatory, as was Sevcík himself.
