    murilo_andreolla
    This document provides suggested practice exercises for seven of the most requested orchestral violin excerpts. It includes exercises from Mozart Symphony No. 39 movements 2 and 4, Schumann Symphony No. 2, Strauss's Don Juan, and Mendelssohn's A Midsummer Night's Dream. The exercises are designed to help with technical challenges like spiccato bowing, string crossings, shifting frames, and working passages backwards. They break down sections of the music to isolate specific techniques while still retaining elements like proper bowings, string crossings, and rhythms.
