Jakob Dont (March 2, 1815 – November 17, 1888) was an Austrian violinist, composer, and teacher. He was born and died in Vienna. His father Valentin Dont was a noted cellist. Jakob was a student of Josef Böhm (1795–1876) and of Georg Hellmesberger (1800–1873). At the age of sixteen, he became a member of the Hofburgtheater orchestra and in 1834 entered service at the Vienna Hofkapelle. During this time Dont appeared frequently as a soloist. Despite his success, he decided against a career as a soloist. In 1853 he became a professor at the ''Pädagogisches Institut'' in Vienna. From 1871, Dont was employed at the ''Wiener Konservatorium''. He would eventually leave this post as the use of his own instructional compositions was forbidden. Dont's compositions are mainly limited to innovative teaching material. His 24 Etudes and Caprices ''Gradus ad parnassum'' Op. 35 and the 24 Exercises Preparatory to the Studies of R. Kreutzer and P. Rode Op. 37 are considered some of the most important technical studies for the violin. Among his students was Leopold Auer. ==Selected works== ;Concertante * ''3 Caprices de concert'' for violin and orchestra, Op. 40 (1858) * ''Morceau de concert'' in D minor for violin and orchestra, Op. 41 (1855) ;Chamber music * ''Introduction et variations brillantes'' in E major for violin and piano, Op. 21 (1844) * ''Potpourri on Themes from the Opera "Alessandro Stradella" by Friedrich von Flotow'' for violin and piano (1846) * ''Potpourri on Themes from the Opera "La part du diable" by Daniel Auber'' for violin and piano (1847) * ''Potpourri on Themes from the Opera "Das Nachtlager in Granada" by Conradin Kreutzer'' for violin and piano (1846–1847) * ''Potpourri on Themes from the Opera "Ernani" by Giuseppe Verdi'' for violin and piano (1847) * ''Potpourri on Themes from the Opera "Die Zigeunerin" by Michael William Balfe'' for violin and piano (1848) * ''Introduction et rondeau brillant'' for violin and piano, Op. 34 (1849) * ''Introduction et variations'' (Introduction und Variationen) in A major for violin and piano, Op. 36 (1848) * ''Potpourri on Themes from the Opera "Der Förster" (L'âme en peine) by Friedrich von Flotow'' for violin and piano (1852) * ''Potpourri on Themes from the Opera "Rigoletto" by Giuseppe Verdi'' for violin and piano (1855) * ''Potpourri on Themes from the Opera "Macbeth" by Giuseppe Verdi'' for violin and piano (1856) * Quartet in E minor for 4 violins, Op. 42 (1859) * Duo in C major for 2 violins, Op. 43 (published 1869) * Quartet in F major for 4 violins, Op. 45 (published 1864) * Duo in A minor for 2 violins, Op. 48 (published 1870) ;Piano * ''3 Mazurkas'', Op. 24 * ''Polonaise'', Op. 31 (1850) * ''Jubel-Marsch zur Feier der glorreichen Schlacht bei Novara'', Op. 32 (1850) ;Pedagogical works * ''Easy Exercises in All Major and Minor Keys'' (Leichte Übungen in allen Dur- und Molltonarten) for violin with accompaniment of a second violin, Op. 17 (1854) * ''5 Caprices'' for violin, Op. 18 (published 1840) * ''3 Caprices'' for violin, Op. 20 (1842) * ''Gradus ad Parnassum: Easy Duettinas for Use as Practice Pieces for Beginners'' (Leichte Duettinen zur Gebrauch als Übungsstücke für Anfänger) for 2 violins, Op. 26 (1851) * ''4 Etudes'' for violin, Op. 30 (1847) * ''6 Etudes'' for violin, Op. 33 (1849) * ''6 Etudes et Caprices'' for violin, Op. 35 (1849) * ''Gradus ad Parnassum: 24 Etudes and Caprices'' (Etüden und Capricen) for violin, Opp. 18, 20, 30, 33, 35 (collection published 1849) * ''Gradus ad Parnassum: 24 Preparatory Exercises to Kreutzer and Rode Etudes'' (24 Vorübungen zu R.
