## Description

Buy Scales by Simon Fischer (ISBN: 9780577087611) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders.

Review: The most comprehensive and useful scale system yet produced - A truly exceptional resource - it's hard to imagine any player from intermediate to virtuoso that wouldn't gain insights from this new system. Fischer's aim here is to demonstrate how scales can be used as a laboratory for improving intonation, shifting, finger placement, velocity, bowing, rhythm, accent... If you ever thought that scales were boring and mechanical, this book should convert you - there's a good deal here that I haven't seen in other systems. Clearly the product of a lifetime of experimentation and experience, this is an open-ended resource that every serious player and pedagogue should explore.
Review: Standing on Carl Flesch's shoulders - At last ! A book that does so much more than simply write out the scales and suggest fingerings. I already had Paxton and Carl Flesch, so I hesitated before investing a sizeable sum in this new book. It was a thoroughly worthwhile investment. This is a first-rate teaching resource.

At last ! A book that does so much more than simply write out the scales and suggest fingerings. I already had Paxton and Carl Flesch, so I hesitated before investing a sizeable sum in this new book. It was a thoroughly worthwhile investment. This is a first-rate teaching resource.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must have for those who take their playing seriously
*by L***O on 10 January 2018*

A very good approach to a sometimes tedious but essential part of violin playing. Very versatile to suit players of all levels.
