The range of material covered by this massive book is enormous: Body Posture, The Left Arm, (position and fingerings), Vibrato, Bowing (including all varieties of strokes), Tone Production, Musical Memory and much, much more.

New hand diagrams have been added and a table for the consistent use of bowing and fingering symbols
