Otakar Sevick was an esteemed musician and violin teacher from the Czech Republic. He authored numerous crucial studies, methods, and teaching aids. One of his works is a collection of 40 studies focusing on the right-hand technique. These exercises cover a range of areas such as string-crossing, arpeggios, triplets, changing bowing styles, staccato, legato, and more.
