Perfo
rming in a string quartet
is a special experience
when first learning to
play a string instrument.
Consisting of two
violins, one viola, and
one cello, the ensemble
features the beauty of
each instrument’s
unique timbre and range.
The 25 pieces in this
collection have been
carefully arranged for
developing musicians in
their first years of
playing. Ranging from
grade 1 to grade 2, each
piece uses easy key
signatures and accessible
ranges in a variety of
styles and tempi.
Spanning several
centuries, these pieces
include works from the
Medieval, Renaissance,
Baroque, Classical,
Romantic, and
Post-Romantic eras.
Representing many
countries and cultures,
this collection also
includes music by women
composers Louise Farrenc,
Cécile Chaminade,
Mélanie Bonis, Louise
Reichardt, and Amy Beach.
Ideal for recitals and
adjudicated events, this
compilation of
approachable music
promises developing
string players a
rewarding first
introduction to the
string quartet.
