About This Collection
Description
Barbara Barber's Preludio Music catalog is built around systematic string pedagogy, with a particular strength in scales and fingerboard training. Teachers working with violin and viola students at all levels will find her scale books dominate this collection: Scales for Advanced Violinists and Scales for Young Violinists are widely adopted starting points for technique building. The catalog also includes the Solos for Young Violinists and Solos for Young Violists series, supplemented by CDs that give students reference recordings to work from.
Highlights
Teachers keep coming back to Scales for Advanced Violinists by Barbara Barber, which has proven essential for older students refining their technical foundation. The companion volume Scales for Young Violinists serves younger players with the same systematic approach. For viola students, Barber's corresponding scale books (both advanced and beginner) provide parallel resources, and the Solos for Young Violinists CD series offers recordings that students can learn from and play alongside.
Composer & Author Spotlight
Barbara Barber is a composer and pedagogue whose work centers on the practical fundamentals of string playing. Her scale books for violin and viola have become standard references in private lessons and classroom settings, and Fingerboard Geography for Violin, Volume 1 extends her approach to spatial understanding of the instrument. Barber's catalog reflects a belief that systematic, incremental work on technique creates the foundation for everything else students do on their instruments.
