Grade 6 Violin Repertoire List

This is an important turning point between intermediate playing and developing the technique for advanced work. Passing Suzuki Book 4 is a major pedagogical hurdle. While it may be tempting to only delve into your ever-expanding repertoire options, don’t forget the etudes and scales! Begin Sevcik’s School of Bowing Technique to learn advanced bowing variations. Very importantly, continuing Harvey Whistler’s Preparing for Kreutzer will lay the foundations for Rudolphe Kreutzer’s famed 42 Etudes, a crucial doorway of technique. This level is equivalent to the end of Suzuki Book 5, RCM 4 and ABRSM 5.
