This lovely Study in G minor is the third of 30 short studies in Josephine Trott's Melodious Double Stops (Book I).

This album was first published in 1925.

It is devoted entirely to the study of double stops.

This Melodious Double Stops study was originally composed for the violin in the key of D minor.

This score is a transcription for viola.

It is set a perfect fifth lower, in the key of G minor.

In this particular study, Ms. Trott points out that one of the two notes is invariably an open string.

Also, Ms. Trott stresses the importance of keeping the fingers on the string as much as possible : Do not lift fingers until necessary.

This Study No. 3 from Book I of Josephine Trott's Melodious Double Stops is appropriate for Grade 3 viola students.

Duration : 00:52
