Description
⭐ Also available as a studio licence.
Inside this set, you’ll find four carefully structured tutor books that introduce fundamental violin techniques and music reading through engaging pieces and exercises. Lessons are clearly laid out, with note charts, making it easy for students to follow at home or in lessons and motivating the learner to explore on their own. The clear structure and imaginative presentation of these tutors have proved highly successful with students of all ages.
The accompanying audio tracks include both full demonstration performances and backing-only versions for every piece, as well as all of the scales, arpeggios and exercises in books 3 & 4. Carefully produced for clarity and musicality, they support confident practice, encourage musicality and expressiveness and help pupils develop secure rhythm, and accurate intonation.
Many teachers and reviewers comment on the musical quality and usefulness of the tracks in both lessons and home practice. A large number of tracks are also compatible with Hey Presto! for Viola (marked 𝄞 in the viola book), encouraging ensemble playing and making mixed groups easier to manage.
This bundle also includes a bonus PDF booklet, KEYS for Violin, covering all first-position key signatures up to five sharps and five flats, together with their scales and arpeggios.
