Book Synopsis
These Melodies were written over the span of a year on the train from Fontainbleau to Paris. I had a need for a book that would bridge the gap between my Chanson book to Vivaldi a minor concerto and the Kayser etudes book. I did not like the available possibilities so I decided to write my own. I reviewed the Vivaldi concerto and Kayser etudes with the following question in mind; what skills does a student need to be able to do to be successful in these works. I then wrote a Melody that would lead to the acquisition of each skill. When I finished I had composed 16 Melodies but had not addressed shifting so I wrote the 8 short shifts. I composed these Melodies and short shifts over 30 years ago and have been using them with much success ever since. Here’s hoping that you find them as useful as I have.
