Overview

This is the essential Scale Studies for Violin (Hangsoriskola hegedűre) by Hungarian violinist and pedagogue Tivadar Országh. Originally a 1948 publication, this 1955 revised and expanded edition is designed to be the foundational text for violin students at the elementary level.

The book is comprehensive, covering all major and minor scales, along with their broken forms, including triads and seventh chords . Its core mission is to systematically prepare the student for advanced technical study, serving as a gradual preparation for the highly demanding Das Skalensystem by the legendary Carl Flesch. Országh provides suggested fingerings, but encourages the student and teacher to creatively vary bowing, rhythmic patterns, and dynamic levels to adapt the material to specific technical needs, emphasizing that the score provides the framework for diverse practice methods.

Áttekintés (Hungarian)

Ez a Hangsoriskola hegedűre a magyar hegedűművész és pedagógus, Országh Tivadar alapvető műve. Az 1948-as kiadvány bővített változata, amelyet 1955-ben adtak ki, és a hegedűtanulás kezdeti fokán álló növendékek számára készült.

A könyv átfogóan tartalmazza az összes dúr- és mollhangsort, valamint azok felbontásait, beleértve a hármas és négyeshangzatokat is. Fő célja a növendék fokozatos felkészítése a haladó technikai tanulmányokra, különösen a legendás Flesch Károly nehéz Das Skalensystem című kötetére. Országh javasolt ujjazatokat közöl, de arra ösztönzi a növendéket és a tanárt, hogy a vonások, ritmikai képletek és dinamikai fokozatok tekintetében variáljanak, alkalmazkodva a konkrét technikai igényekhez.

Product Features

• Foundational Scale Work: Covers all necessary major and minor scales, plus arpeggios (broken triads and seventh chords) for elementary violin study.
• Progressive Method: Structured to build technical proficiency incrementally, bridging the gap between beginner work and advanced virtuoso studies (like Carl Flesch's method).
• Flexible Pedagogy: Encourages variation in fingering, bowing, rhythm, and dynamics to tailor the practice to individual needs.
• Includes Double Stops: Features sample exercises for progressions in thirds, sixths, octaves, and tenths, which can be transposed by the student for full coverage.
• Solo Violin: Scored for unaccompanied violin, focusing solely on the player's technique and intonation.

Interesting Facts

• Tivadar Országh's Legacy: Tivadar Országh (1901–1963) was a prominent Hungarian violinist and professor at the Liszt Academy of Music. His pedagogical works, like this scale book, are rooted in the rigorous Central European tradition of violin instruction.
• Preparing for Flesch: The explicit mention of preparing for Carl Flesch's monumental Scale System underscores the high standards of technical mastery aimed for by this pedagogical lineage. Flesch (1873–1944) was one of the 20th century's most influential violin teachers.
• Customization in Practice: The suggestion to alter bowing, rhythm, and dynamics reflects a modern, adaptable approach to practice, where the single-line scale becomes a vehicle for dozens of different technical challenges.
