Jakob Dont, a Viennese violin pedagogue, wrote the 24 "Études et Caprices", Op. 35, which are violin solos without accompaniment and are considered essential classics. Published in 1880, the pieces consist of 48 pages and are edited by H. Berkley at a very advanced level. The etudes have been reworked by violinists such as Carl Flesch, Max Rostal, and Ivan Galamian in numerous new editions throughout the twentieth century.
