Study - Etude - Étude
This score is a transcription of Study Op. 45, No. 2 for violin by Franz Wohlfahrt.This study of détaché bowing ought to be practiced with a great variety of bowing patterns, in all parts of the bow.
The violist should try to keep the fingers close to the fingerboard as he plays this study.
In particular, the fourth finger should remain above the strings at all times.
Furthermore, it is good idea to use the fourth finger instead of the open strings as often as possible, in order to develop a good position of the left hand.
Besides developing détaché bowing, this study is an excellent way for the student to develop sight-reading skills in the key of F Major, especially on the two lower strings.
Duration : 01:10
