Melodious Double Stops Book 1 consists of 30 short to medium-length exercises for toning double-stop skills. Intended for advancing players, the book assumes a basic familiarity with double-stops, but uses melodies to make practicing those skills more enjoyable. In addition to the double-stops themselves, the exercises also involve harmonics, various bow-strokes, and some left-hand pizzicato. By Josephine Trott. Published by G.
