Until comparatively recent times very little had been written for the viola as a solo instrument. Our contemporary composers have done a great deal to remedy this situation. Bax, Beresowsky, Bliss, Bloch, Delius, Hindemith, Honegger, Milhaud, Vaughan Williams, Walton and many others have contributed important sonatas, suites and concertos for the viola. Many new works are constantly being added. This new literature has placed new demands upon the violist, who in the past found a place only as an orchestra or chamber music player. Higher standards of technical perfection are required. It therefore occurred to me that the “Scalesystem” published by the eminent pedagogue and violinist Carl Flesch, regarded as a standard work by violinists the world over, would be equally valuable to violists if translated into their medium. I have undertaken this task with the encouragement of Professor Carl Flesch. The publishers and I hope that it will be found useful by performers and teachers of the viola. Charlotte Karman New York October 1941

Nearly a century after its initial publication, Carl Flesch's Scale System remains one of the foremost scale books for violin. This comprehensive collection of exercises features the 24 major and minor scales, with emphasis on both double-stops and arpeggios. With Flesch's exercises, the intermediate player will progressively master intonation, shifting, rhythm, string crossing, bow speed and pressure, and tone production. Initially published as a supplement to Book 1 of The Art of Violin Playing, Flesch's Scale System has become the principal scale study for serious violinists. Carl Flesch (1873-1944) was born in Hungary and began playing the violin at age seven. He was a famous chamber musician, instructor, and solo performer, who mastered repertoire ranging from Baroque to contemporary works.

Dr. Suzuki questioned why all vocalists vocalize every day to improve their voices, but instrumentalists do not do so every day with their instruments. He believes that on any instrument, one needs to practice to make a more beautiful tone. First he talks about playing a beautiful resonant tone with the bow while plucking the string with a finger. When a pizzicato is played, the resonance goes on for a long time. Students should listen to that resonance and play the same kind of clear beautiful sound. He talks about how to make a difference in the tone by using a different bow speed, how to practice to find the resonance point, how to change the weight of the arm on the bow to produce a different kind of tone, and how to change tone color. This book includes all of Dr. Suzuki's basic ideas about tone.
