Book Reviews of Mel Bay Daily Scale Exercises for Violin

Book Review: Useful for beginners, too
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a fantastic scales "workout" book that covers all the major and minor scales. I am a beginner and don't read violin music well, but my teacher is making little indications to help me along with the fingerings. If you don't have a teacher to do this for you, you'll need to know how to read the music.

The bowing marks are especially helfpul. I am working on the "easier" scales such as A, D, and G, of course. But there's a lot here to recommend for other beginners, and the price is a bargain.

For beginners who want to learn fiddle tunes by the tablature method, I recommend "Big Fun Easy Fiddle" by Larry McCabe.

Summary of Mel Bay Daily Scale Exercises for Violin

Designed to help people master all 24 major and minor scales. In this book, first, all the violin scales are re-organized to be more simple, practical, and easy to learn. Then all the fingerings of the single-stop scales are classified into only a few basic patterns. When practicing, violinists can study these fingering patterns first and then use them to play all 24 scales easily. Finally, all the fingerings of the double-stop scales are also re-edited to make them as simple as possible. With this approach, the process of learning violin scales is much easier than before.
