Franz Wohlfahrt

Franz Wohlfahrt (7 April 1833 – 14 March 1884) was a German violin teacher and composer based in Leipzig.
Wohlfahrt was born and died in Leipzig, where his father, Heinrich Wohlfahrt, was a piano teacher. He wrote a series of etudes, 60 Studies for Violin, Op. 45, which are often among the first ones studied by beginning violinists and violists. He was a student of Ferdinand David.

Many of Wohlfahrt's works are in public domain and can be found online as sites like imslp.org

I have recorded some of the etudes composed by Wohlfahrt and these recordings can be accessed either on youtube or through the practice videos page.
