Learn
ing 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.
