This video is the accompaniment track to an Eighth-Note Exercise from Villainous Foundations, by Brian Balmages. It focuses on introducing or reinforcing eighth-note groupings while using simple left-hand finger patterns. It also reinforces bow position and all string crossings include an open string. This exercise is ideal for first-year string players, but is also ideal to reinforce octave tuning for more experienced students.
