Persian Violin Method – Volume 2
Persian Violin Method is a four-volume educational series originally compiled by Ruhollah Khaleqi. It is widely recognized as an important and comprehensive resource for learning Persian violin repertoire and technique.
When a Western instrument becomes established within a new musical culture, developing a dedicated method represents an important step in its integration into that tradition. This series provides a structured foundation for violin education within the Persian musical tradition.
Revised Edition of Volume 2
In this revised edition, the changes remain minimal. The revision focuses mainly on correcting notation and bowing inconsistencies while preserving the original educational structure and musical content.
What Students Learn
This second volume builds on the foundation established in Book One. It introduces more complex pieces while developing the technical skills required for expressive Persian violin playing.
Students will also become familiar with important elements of Persian musical practice, including Persian microtones such as raised Fa (F Sori) and lowered Si (B Koron). Toward the end of the volume, students are also introduced to the concept of alternate violin tunings.
Persian Violin Technique and Repertoire
Through progressively more challenging pieces, Volume 2 helps students develop greater control of the violin and a deeper understanding of Persian musical expression. In addition, the introduction of microtones and alternate tunings expands the student’s technical and musical vocabulary.
Who Is This Book For?
This volume is suitable for violin students who have completed the fundamentals presented in the first book and are ready to study more advanced Persian violin techniques and repertoire. It can also serve as a useful teaching resource for violin instructors working with students interested in Persian music.
