These “playbocks” form a sequel to the authors Violin method for group instruction (BA 6623). They contain musical games, canons and songs in simple arrangements for one to three identical instruments, introclucing children to ensemble playing during their first music lessons. Each arrangement has a melody part joined by an accompaniment part on open strings and a fingered accompaniment for more advanced pupils, so that all children have a chance to play. The play- books end with several four-part pieces and can be combined for use in mixed ensembles.
