Description
Summary:Teaching the technical behaviors in violin education is delivered through various exercises, etudes and works. Throughout the history of the violin, composers, such as P. Billot and R. Kreutzer, J.P., and performers, such as Rode, H. and Sitt, A. Seybold wrote various etudes to improve techniques in playing the violin. Later, famous pedagogues I. Galamian, C. Flesch, and L. Auer worked on advanced techniques. Violin works supported by all these technical studies, have been written and classified in a systematic manner from the earliest to the most difficult works in Western music literature. Examining the violin literature in Turkey, the study finds that violin works are written only for those at the intermediate and advanced levels and works written for beginners are scarce. If the notion that education written in the students’ culture and made with melodies familiar to one’s ears is more reliable were to be true, then beginning education by playing the works of Turkish composers is important. In this research, Onur Özmen’s Op. 41 This study aimed to examine a work entitled “Sonata for Violin–Piano” from the technical aspect and determine its level. The study is descriptive in nature and employs a questionnaire to violin educators. Data were analyzed as percentage and frequency.
