Semitone Exercise for Grade 1 pupilsHere is an invaluable semitone scale for young students who have mastered the first finger pattern. Play these quite steadily, and use the whole bow. The repeat signs are important...they enable you to improve on the semitone movement of the finger thanks to the strengthening gained by a repetitive movement. Here is the study / exercise / scale :
