Summary of This Method
What if "practicing scales" became a true musical pleasure rather than a purely mechanical constraint? This is the guiding idea of Jacques Borsarello, who offers here a scale method for violinists, equally relevant for students in training as for experienced players wishing to maintain and refine their technique. The goal is clear: to gain efficiency, consistency, and playing comfort, while maintaining a constant connection to musicality.
The uniqueness of this method lies in its approach to scales: instead of working with relative major/minor pairs, the practice is organized around modes constructed from the same tonic. This logic allows the student to develop a more systematic vision of the fingerboard and to work on the three modes with similar fingerings, generated by shifting semitones. The result: easier memorization of patterns, stabilized intonation, and the development of solid reference points for tuning.
Throughout the pages, this progression helps position the left hand and control all essential subtleties: scale sequences, arpeggios, work in thirds, sixths, and other octaves. A particularly useful resource for daily warm-up, preparation for études and repertoire, or simply to strengthen violin mastery with a structured and demanding method, without losing the joy of playing.
