Venuti e-books?

Polkat

I don't quite understand the e-books page. I want the Venuti books, but don't understand how to pay for them to download them. Can anyone help this dummy?

Any opinions on the Venuti rhythm books? I'm thinking about getting it for my girlfriend. She has taken some classical lessons and has a pretty good ear, but her bow technique is a bit lacking.

Thanks!

I'm not a violinist so I've never gone through them carefully. But they seem to be very detailed. Violinist friends of mine have said that the bowing instruction is the best thing about the book. You don't really find many tutorials on swing bowing. Also, it's set up in a very regimented way....you progress through a series of academic sort exercises. Venuti is very adamant about not skipping ahead!

I hope that helps...

Thanks Michael, regimented is exactly what she needs!

She could hear and see the phrasing.
