This book is designed for mandolinists seeking to develop their left and right-hand technique. The exercises included help reinforce fundamental actions of playing, and challenge the player to master the various permutations and combinations of these fundamentals. Each hand is given primary focus, working across all four strings or up and down the fretboard before both hands are challenged simultaneously. Through these exercises, a player can improve their functioning abilities and facilitate better control over the instrument. Practicing these workouts can help with the mechanics of playing as well, helping a player improve accuracy, speed, and agility in both hands.
The exercises in this book are not written in standard notation or tab. The patterns that make up the exercises are written with finger pattern diagrams, finger order numbers, string numbers, and fretboard diagrams. This will allow mandolinists, regardless of reading abilities, of all styles and all levels, to use the exercises.
