A great music educator once said, Rhythm is caught, not taught. Duet playing provides valuable experience developing a sense of rhythm. These duets are designed for two students at the same level - primo and secondo parts are of equal difficulty. Both parts are fun to learn because both players are given interesting acompaniments as well as melodies. It is suggested that a student alternate parts, learning the primo part for one piece, the secondo part for the next, etc. This gives valuable sight-reading experience with both hands in treble clef and with both hands in bass clef. Duet playing provides an excellent opportunity for ear training, too. Emphasis should be placed on listening carefully to both parts so that the melody can be heard clearly and the accompaniment subdued. Book Two includes 12 duets: Blue Tail Fly * (She'll Be) Comin' Round the Mountain * Down by the Riverside * Jimmy Crack Corn (Blue Tail Fly) * Little David Play on Your Harp * Marines' Hymn * My Wild Irish Rose * You're a Grand Old Flag * and more.

Stringt astic Beginners is a fun new series designed to teach through playing in an engaging exploration of musical styles. A fully integrated series, violin, viola, cello, and double bass can all learn and play together in any combination. Each book contains over 40 imaginative pieces to steadily establish a secure playing technique and build confidence, one step at a time, taking the student from complete beginner (open strings) to playing the notes of the D major scale. The first 20 pieces consist of two independent tunes that can be played as duets – one for open strings and a more advanced part using the left-hand fingers, which students can revisit as they progress. Ideal for individual and group lessons as well as flexible ensemble and classroom settings. Every piece is supported by an exciting backing track plus a piano-only track for practice, all available to download.

This Teacher’s Accompaniment book provides the complete piano accompaniments which work with any combination of instrumental parts.
