3FOURTH GRADE.
5Although the custom prevails of starting the 36 caprices by Fiorillo right after Kreutzer, it might be advisable to look through one or two other study works before Fiorilla. To be recommended are:
7Tartini, 50 Variations (revised by David, Andre Edition).
8Fr. Hermann, Op. 29 — Book 3.
10Both these works (particularly Tartini) contain a multitude of bowings as well as rhythmical figurations, which elements are only sparingly found in Kreutzer and Fiorillo.
12Concert-selections, corresponding with this grade, are in the following list:
13Rode, 7th Concerto, from the concert-studies by David Hofmann.
14Viotti, 29th Concerto, from the concert-studies of David Hofmann.
15Vieuxtemps, Op. 22, Air varie.
16David, Op. 5, "Little Drummer Boy."
17Alard, L'Argonesa.
18Leonard, Souvenir de Bade (Fischer Edition).
19Viotti, 22nd Concerto (David Hofmann).
20Beethoven, 2 Romances, in F and G.
21David, Op. 16. Andante and Scherzo Capriccioso.
22Kreutzer, 2 Concertos, in D major and D minor (David Hofmann).
23Wieniawski, Legende.
24Wieniawski, Mazurkas—"Obertass," etc.
25Bériot, Concerto No. 9 (Schirmer).
