Many hundreds of
young violinists have passed through our doors.
Most have
continued to play the violin through the years - and this is the most
important measure of success!
These ARRANGEMENTS
were developed in response to student musical tastes and reflect our
experience of what works and what doesn't.
Here are some of
the features that make them successful:
Many pieces allow the
more-skilled and less-skilled players to play together ... You can
see the rewards right away... The lesser-skilled player gets to
play the melody (usually) ... The more-skilled feels quite
accomplished ...
Beautiful melodies, attractive
arrangements ...
Standard Classics, Familiar
Folk Melodies, some new creations ...
The Viola part is often given
as optional ... not because we don't like violas, but because
violists lead such unusual lives that we can't find them when we
need them ...
Cello always has something
IMPORTANT to do!!
I hope that you
and your students will enjoy this music!
