Violin Methods.
Courvoisier, C. Violin School. (7600 a-c).
An elaborate method in three parts, with five supplementary parts constituting a “School of Velocity” (7603 a-e), with copious explanations given in English, German and French.
David, F. Violin School.
Hofmann, R. The First Instruction in Violin Playing, complete (5668) or in 2 Bks. (5668 a, b). (Der erste Unterricht im Violinspiel.) Op. 92.
The first elements are explained in a very thorough and systematic manner. For young amateurs it has moreover the advantage of engaging their interest by the frequent use of well known melodies in the places of dry meaningless figures.
Kayser, H. E. Popular Violin Tutor (Elementary). Op. 65. (7606.)
A clear and systematic primer which leads the pupil on by the aid of favourite melodies will be always attractive for young beginners.
Mazas. Petite Méthode.
Popular Instructor in Violin Playing (2 Bks.). (7623 a, b).
