Summary of This Method
Scales in Double Stops is a resource dedicated to a key aspect of bowed string instrument technique: mastering scales in double notes. Double stops require fine coordination between the left hand (spacing, pressure, placement) and the right hand (speed, contact point, bow distribution). This method guides you in establishing reliable habits and achieving more stable intonation, even when intervals become challenging.
By practicing scales specifically designed for double stops, you enhance the perception of finger spacing and internal pitch listening. It is an excellent complement to the study of "single" scales: it improves position accuracy, security during string crossings, and resonance control. Depending on your practice, this content can be integrated both as a warm-up and as more in-depth technical work, alternating slow tempo (placement and listening) and moderate tempo (stability and endurance).
This method is particularly suitable for musicians who wish to improve the clarity of chords, the holding of thirds, sixths, or octaves, and the continuity of sound across two strings. It can also serve as effective preparation before studying works that include double-stop passages, making execution smoother, more accurate, and more musical.

Questions frequently asked
Does this method cover scales in double stops?
The book is dedicated to scales in double stops, with simultaneous playing of two notes on bowed string instruments.
Which intervals are addressed in Scales and Arpeggios Vol. 2?
The content focuses notably on thirds, sixths, and octaves. These intervals help develop intonation and sound continuity across two strings.
Can this method prepare players for passages with double stops in pieces?
The proposed exercises serve as preparation for passages featuring double stops. They target finger spacing and left-hand placement. Bow distribution and string crossings are also part of the technical aspects addressed.
How should these double-note scales be used during warm-up?
Practicing at a slow tempo allows working on finger placement and pitch listening. A moderate tempo then helps develop stability and endurance.
Does volume 2 help improve intonation in double stops?
Studying the finger spacing enhances internal listening and aims for more stable intonation, especially in challenging intervals.
