NEVER Use Scales AGAIN! Warm Up Hacks Revealed - Bach, Schostakovich, Double Stops | Violin Tutorial

Do you want to improve your routine warming up and cooling down exercises but find practising scales for hours each day becoming unmotivating, increasingly dull and uninteresting?
Today in this tutorial I talk about warming up, cooling down and pieces or exercises to use for both instead of practising scales. This tutorial also includes demonstrations of double stop scales, etudes and pieces.
I have listed below a number of studies, etudes and piece which could be used in place of using scale to warm-up and/or cool down before practising, group rehearsals or a performance. Enjoy!
Pieces and etudes featured:
Focus: Warm-up & Cool down
Advanced players - Double Stops:
D Major double stop scales - ascending and descending, two octaves
D Major scale - ascending and descending, three octaves (up to 10th position)
Intermediate players and beginners:
D Major scale - ascending and descending, two octaves (up to 3rd position)
Etudes
Kreutzer - Allegro moderato, etude no. 2; Allegro, etude no. 4 - violin etudes
Sevcik - Violin Studies, Op. 1, etudes no. 1 to 4
Excerpts
