{"product_id":"rcm-violin-technique-etudes-and-musicianship-5-8-2021-edition","title":"RCM - Violin Technique, Etudes, and Musicianship 5-8, 2021 Edition","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n  Carefully selected and curated to support teachers and students in their artistic and technical development, the Violin Series, 2021 Edition includes pieces from a diverse range of eras and styles that represent stepping stones to major violin repertoire. Each level is constructed to link repertoire selections to necessary techniques and corresponding etudes, while illustrating step-by-step connections for developing core skills.\n\nBuilding upon previous levels, Violin Technique, Etudes, and Musicianship 5–8 expands technical exercises to include three-octave scales and arpeggios, chromatic scales, dominant 7th and diminished 7th arpeggios, one-octave flageolets, and a mix of one- and two-octave double-stop chords consisting of thirds, sixths, and octaves. Etudes range from those by traditional composers to modern commissions that explore unique technical concepts.\n\nComprehensive musicianship skills are further developed through sight-reading passages where students encounter double stops, left-hand pizzicato, artificial harmonics, and a variety of articulations and position work within keys of up to four sharps or flats in simple or compound time. Ear training exercises focus on intervals, chords, chord progressions, clapbacks and playbacks.\n  \u003cdiv itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/MusicPlaylist\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:16px; color:#0a0a0a; line-height:1.6; margin:0; padding:0;\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv style=\"border:1px solid #e5e7eb; border-radius:12px; padding:20px; background:#fff; max-width:900px;\"\u003e\n    \u003c!-- Title --\u003e\n    \u003ch2 style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0; font-size:22px; line-height:1.3;\"\u003e\n      \u003cspan itemprop=\"name\"\u003eCelebrate Theory – Level 5–8 Violin Technique\u003c\/span\u003e\n      \u003cspan style=\"font-weight:normal; color:#4b5563;\"\u003e(SKU: \u003cspan itemprop=\"sku\"\u003eVLT03\u003c\/span\u003e)\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n    \u003c!-- Basic Info --\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 16px 0; color:#374151;\"\u003e\n      \u003cstrong\u003eLevel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Level 5 – Level 8 • \n      \u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan itemprop=\"isbn\"\u003e978-1-55440-912-9\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003c!-- Contents --\u003e\n    \u003cdiv itemprop=\"description\" style=\"margin:0;\"\u003e\n      \u003ch3 style=\"margin:0 0 8px 0; font-size:18px;\"\u003eContents\u003c\/h3\u003e\n      \u003cul style=\"margin:0 0 6px 18px; padding:0;\"\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eGrande valse-ballet – Harold Birston\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eAgitation – Yaakov Geringas\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eEtude in C Major, op. 20, no. 1 – Heinrich Ernst Kayser\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eJolly Rondo – Susan Griesdale\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eMelodious Double Stops No. 10 – Josephine Trott\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eEtude in F Major, op. 32, book 2, no. 22 – Hans Sitt\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eEtude in C Major, op. 45, book 2, no. 42 – Franz Wohlfahrt\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eDancing Digits – Christine Gale\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003eEl cascabel (The Little Bell) – Lorenzo Barcelata, arr.
