24 Etudes and Caprices, Opus 35 for Violin Solo

Jacob Dont’s 24 Etudes and Caprices, Op. 35, stand among the most pivotal pedagogical works in the violin repertoire, composed between 1840 and 1849 and finalized in 1880. This conservatory-level collection remains a “staple of advanced violin education,” regularly studied between Kreutzer and Paganini works. A violinist forum notes the “hidden musicality” in the etudes—“when played properly sounds great,” not just technical drills.
