Grade 2-Composer's Description:Whether a student or a great artist the desire to make a beautiful sound is a constant in the life of any musician. Sound is the musician's voice the means of communicating an artistic vision to the audience and it should be the aim for children of any age or standard to be engaged in good tone production.The inspiration for writing these pieces came to me from the wish to give the young children I teach music which would develop their ear for both good intonation and beautiful tone production. All the pieces have a strongly implied harmonic structure allowing them to be played without accompaniment. The purpose of the second violinpart is therefore to enable the teacher to underline the harmony as well as to influence the student's tone production and intonation through his own sound as much can be taught by good example.Finally I think that children enjoy the challenge of expressing different moods and emotions musically and I hope that the range of ideas implied by the keys and the titles of these pieces will fire their imagination.

An impelling and moving Sonata for Two Violins by Ukranian composer Sergie Prokofiev. The four short movements are lyrical playful fantastic and violent all striking themes. The warmer style and highly effective sequence mirrors Prokofiev's condition at the time of composition: after his travels to the West away from Russia his work became increasingly more embracing rather than the confrontational and biting scores of his youth.

30 petites pièces mélodiques et rythmiques p violon/ 30 Short Melodic and Rhythmic Pieces For Violin-Val?rie Bime-Apparailly’s My First Studies To Play Together for Violin. Published by the Editions Leduc Val?rie Bime-Apparailly’s instrumental beginner books – such as ‘Je d?bute le violon’ and ‘Mes premi?res doubles cordes en chansons’ – have enjoyed overwhelming popularity since the day they were published. This excellent educator here turns her attention to the delicate matter of studies: how can these pieces be made less tedious for young violinists? With a crisp clear design enhanced by drawings and carefully crafted explanatory notes the MyFirst Studies To Play Together collection for Violin takes away the dreariness of these pieces giving them beyond their technical importance a musical charm that appeals to 2nd and 3rd year students. The adaptation of the Marche en rondeau which opens Marc-Antoine Charpentier’s ‘Te Deum’ allows players to discover the subtleties of the dal segno; the author also reminds us that this tune gained fame as the Eurovision credits song. These pieces some of which are original some of which borrow from the classical repertoire (Mozart Spohr Beethoven) or from works of great teachers like Charles de B?riot and Fr?d?ric Berr familiarise violinists with musical concepts as basic as syncopation or bowing indications without sacrificing the pleasure of playing music.
