Description
With Violin Playtime Book 3 Paul de Keyser, the beginner violinist can make music from the very first lessons. In the three books that make up the series (all of which are available from Trax), there are over a hundred little pieces with piano accompaniments, a treasure-trove of attractive tunes – some traditional, some by composers of the past, some newly composed. But this is more than just an easy anthology; the underlying approach is ‘learn as you play’, and a carefully devised ground plan of technical development makes it a manual in disguise, a tutor without text.
This book takes violinists to Grade 2 standard. Lively illustrations contribute visually to the excitement of learning the violin.
