Roger Benedict's comprehensive book of shifting exercises provides a guide not only to shifting, but to all facets of left-hand technique, and is a perfect companion to his popular scale method Scale Up! It is a structured system with foolproof exercises that cover all the different types of shift, both single- and double-stopped, to help build real resilience and reliability. As a result, violists will develop a fearlessness and freedom in their playing that will enable them to broaden their expressive and interpretive range.
