{"product_id":"9780253219336","title":"Ricci on Glissando : The Shortcut to Violin Technique by Ruggiero Ricci","description":"In his book on left-hand violin technique, Maestro Ruggiero Ricci addresses common problems in shifting by advocating the study of the glissando technique. He asserts that re-incorporating this technique will not only aid violinists in developing a better-trained ear, but also provide them with \"shortcuts\" to playing some of Paganini's most difficult passages.  Ricci introduces and compares old and new systems of playing to provide a context for the glissando system. He outlines a series of glissando scales that provides the student with a blueprint for developing additional glissando scales in other keys. He offers exercises designed to increase flexibility, ear training, coordination, and crawling technique and has included a DVD in which he demonstrates various bowing techniques.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56230906200437,"sku":"9780253219336","price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780253219336.jpg?v=1762265937","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9780253219336","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
