1EDITOR'S NOTE.
3In the present, new, edition of the First Part of de Bériot's Violin Method, my chief aim has been to give English-speaking students a clear and concise version of this celebrated work. The omission of the chapter on Solfeggio, as well as the remarks on "The Attitude," etc., is the result of the firm conviction that not only are such matters best learned, and taught, in the classroom, but also that their treatment, when purely theoretical, generally proves futile.
5All minor omissions from the original text were considered desirable on the ground that they could not prove helpful to the student, and, in many cases, would serve only to bewilder him.
