Learning to play chamber music is an important milestone in the music studentââ¬â¢s journey. Playing with a teacher or friend helps develop rhythmic independence, intonation, listening skills, and sense of pulse that are vital to playing in an ensemble. These progressive duets offer beginning and developing players the opportunity to play along with others, or with the helpful support of the teacher in a lesson. Each duet adds new techniques and challenges that align with the natural advancement of lessons, moving from easy rhythms and keys to staccato bow strokes, slurs, accidentals (low or extended finger patterns), and more complex or independent rhythms. While the melody remains in the top line, musicians can alternate playing the melody as all efforts have been made to keep both parts at a similar difficulty level. This book features familiar melodies from traditional, folk, and Classical repertoire including tunes that many string teachers will recognize from Suzuki books. Appropriate for recitals or even small group concerts, there are 30 selections of different tempi, styles, and keys for variety, while remaining in string-friendly ranges. Each duet is one page or less in length, ensuring an immediate sense of success for young players. The perfect supplement to method book exercises and solo repertoire.

Henri Wieniawski, the Polish born violin virtuoso, chamber musician, composer and pedagogue was admitted into Lambert Massart's violin class at the Paris Conservatoire at age 8. In 1850, he received the Premiere Prix, both as violinist and composer. His pedagogical masterpiece l'Ecole Moderne was published when Wieniawski was 19 years old. These 9 concert etudes combine Wieniawski's passionate romantic style as a composer with his stunning inventiveness as violin virtuoso. The etudes are now staples in every conservatory. In 1860, Wieniawski became the Tsar's violinist and head of the string department of the newly established St. Petersburg Conservatory. His innovative bowing is the template of the famed Russian Violin School. Wieniaski's bowhold became known as the Russian Bow Grip..

Student Violin part with either teacher (as violin duets) or with piano accompaniment (Vln & Pno).This bumper volume incorporates the three separate former publications from Spartan Press, the series called 'Concertinos in the Olden Style' (SP1121–3).Piano accompaniments by Heidi Rolfe.Nigel Goldberg writes:I can still remember the thrill I felt as a child of 8 when my violin teacher introduced me to my first concertino. Learning, playing and eventually mastering the famous Küchler Concertino in D major made me feel privileged and grown-up, as if I were joining a very special club.That was a long time ago, yet for me concertinos still hold a distinctive place in the teaching repertoire. Having now taught the violin for the last thirty years and seen how happily my pupils respond to learning duets - that distinctive sense of enjoyment at playing with an adult, the improvement of intonation and tone production, the liveliness of the lesson - I have composed three new concertinos, inspired by the duet form.Taking three great keys for the violin – G, D and A minor, I have endeavoured to combine emotionally engaging and technically educational music in the 'Olden Style'. Uniquely, I have written a second violin part for the teacher to play alongside their pupil's part and there is also a piano accompaniment for use alternatively in concert settings.I very much hope that these concertinos prove as popular and as helpful as the series of duets in my previously published books, Sounds of a Rainbow and, that they ignite that sense of wonderment and purpose I experienced while playing the Kuchler, all those years ago.Former Spartan Press Cat.
