About a month after I wrote Open String Bow Workouts for the Viola, Book One, back at the end of 2019, I got the first email asking for Book Two. As more and more people started asking for Book Two, I realized that I'd like a Book Two as well and I started mapping out what a second volume would look like.

​It's taken a little bit longer than I'd planned (apologies to everyone who got a January 2020 estimated release date!) but Open String Workouts for the Viola, Book Two is finally here!

To celebrate, here is a second volume of free Mini Open String Bowing Workouts for Viola! The mini viola bowing workouts below are all-new and aren't included in the book. ​

Free Mini Viola Bowing Workout No. 1

Better Bowing Articulation: Free Mini Open-String Workouts for Viola, Book Two!

Free Mini Viola Bowing Workout No. 2

Better Bowing Articulation: Free Mini Open-String Workouts for Viola, Book Two!

Because Open String Bow Workouts for Viola, Book Two focuses on articulation and bow control, these free studies work on some of the same skills that the book does: staccato, dynamics, double stop staccato, and spiccato.

    Cassia Harvey can't ever find or play enough exercises. She searches for rare and out-of-print studies and etudes in her free time. If you know of any, please let her know. Seriously; it's an obsession.

    Myanna Harvey's teacher assigned her piles of exercises when she was growing up but whenever her mother stopped listening, Myanna would quickly break away from the Sevcik to play a bit of Brahms or Beethoven she had heard on the radio. Now she practices with exercises and assigns them to students but her greatest passion is playing chamber music.
