Only rarely does a new publication emerge that bridges a genuine gap in string pedagogy with clarity and effectiveness. Published in separate editions for Violin and Viola, this method facilitates the intermediate student’s progress from introductory studies to the comprehensive systematic approaches of Ivan Galamian and Carl Flesch. In addition to accommodating—conceptually and visually—both fundamental fingering systems, Dr. Moyer distills for isolated practice the essential elements of shifting and left-hand position unique to or common among each chromatic key. This analytical approach with concentrated technical practice develops a disciplined basis of technical fluency for students and provides a refreshing strategy for the novice pedagogue as well as for highly experienced artist-teachers. Students pursuing graduate studies in string pedagogy will find this method an enlightening and inspiring model for studio instruction.
