The books volume G are perfect repertoire and shifting exercise collections also without any previous use or knowledge of the method.
The volume G of the ground-breaking Colourstrings violin tutors by Géza Szilvay studies every position of the violin in a separate volume: G1 the second position and G2 the third position (forthcoming G3 the fourth position, G4 the fifth position and the last one, G5, the high positions).
These books form an all-embracing, rich collection of shifting exercises, position playing studies, excerpts from the literature, chamber music and performing pieces.
Now published parts, Book G1 (Second position) and Book G2 (Third position) follow the key principles of Colourstrings methodology – the use of natural harmonics for instance – but they can be fully utilized also without any previous use or knowledge about the Colourstrings method.
A separate book, Colourstrings Violin ABC: Performing pieces for Violin in the First Three Positions (supplement for the book G2) completes the carefully hand-picked repertoire from four centuries. The piano accompaniments of the performing pieces included in these three books (59 pieces all together) are compiled in one volume (Colourstrings Violin ABC: Piano accompaniments for the books G1, G2 & G2 supplement).[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
