Gentle step

The safest next step.

Gentle
4 Romantic Pieces, for violin and piano, op. 75
Antonín Dvořák
44/100 +6 pts 4-8 weeks
new reflexes low risk to confirm
A short step up, staying in Elementary (around grade 5 ABRSM/RCM). New compared with the previous piece: Vibrato and Legato d'archet — what matters is a steady sustained tone: bow speed, contact point and pressure even, before any thought of speed.
Gentle
Violin Sonata no. 29 in A major, K.402
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
44/100 +6 pts 4-8 weeks
new reflexes low risk to confirm
A short step up, staying in Elementary (around grade 5 ABRSM/RCM). New compared with the previous piece: Legato d'archet and Connaissance des formes — practise it slowly, separating left hand from bow: bow alone on open strings, then the fingering silently.
Gentle
Mazurka, for violin and piano
Edward Elgar
42/100 +4 pts 4-8 weeks
new reflexes low risk to confirm
A short step up, staying in Elementary (around grade 5 ABRSM/RCM). New compared with the previous piece: Rythmes pointés and Détaché — the pitfall is the pulse drifting as soon as the writing thickens: subdivide with the metronome.
Gentle

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
44/100 +6 pts 4-8 weeks
new reflexes low risk to confirm
A short step up, staying in Elementary (around grade 5 ABRSM/RCM). New compared with the previous piece: Passages rapides and Style classique — practise it slowly, separating left hand from bow: bow alone on open strings, then the fingering silently.

Same level

To widen the repertoire without raising the level.

Same level
Rondo for Violin and Piano in G major, WoO 41
Ludwig van Beethoven
38/100 same level 2-3 weeks
new reflexes low risk to confirm
Equivalent demands, still Elementary (around grade 4 ABRSM/RCM): what changes is the ground. What changes is the skill in play: Vibrato and Style classique — what matters is a steady sustained tone: bow speed, contact point and pressure even, before any thought of speed.
Progressions computed from difficulty, skill overlap and style between works. A What do we play next? recommendation should remain a pedagogical starting point, not an automatic prescription.
