The etudes are very instructive, but are presented in such a way that playing fun is still guaranteed. The playing material is violinistically and musically interesting.

The demo tracks on the CDs are intended to be versions to listen to; they form an excellent frame of reference. Those who wish to play along can do so.; it is always useful.
