The 18 pieces in Volumes 1 and 2 are structured to follow the same progression of finger patterns introduced in the Early Start method. This systematic progression helps the student to solidify the hand position and improve intonation. The basic bowing techniques do not require changes in bow speed or sounding point. The young performer can focus on a straight and beautifully placed bow that produces a pleasing and clear sound. Volume 1 can be used as a supplement to the 'Early Start on the Viola method', Volumes 1 and 2 (BA 9686 and BA 9687). Volume 2 (BA 8991) can be used as a supplement to the 'Early Start on the Viola method?, Volume 2 (BA 9687). / Alto Et Piano (Ou 2 Altos)
