Book Reviews of Mel Bay Fiddling for Viola
Book Review: Excellent Book
Summary: 5 Stars
As a violinist, it was nice to see the transposition from treble clef to alto clef explained so clearly. Seeing the pieces in both clefs allows me to "see" the difference and to play the viola while reading the treble clef, if that's what I want to do.
I think it's one of the best books I've seen for those who want to transition from violin to viola.
Summary of Mel Bay Fiddling for Viola
Quite possibly the largest collection of fiddle music for viola ever published! Contains a wealth of material for fiddlers seeking a transition to the viola and/or violists in search of a collection of traditional fiddle music. Designed to meet the rising popularity of the viola's role in folk music, the tunes in this book are grouped into C, G, D, F, B-flat, and E-flat major fingering. The music in this book is printed on parallel staffs. The top is traditional viola notation in the alto clef while the bottom is the same music in transposing violin notation, allowing fiddlers who read the G or treble clef to play the viola by fingering it as if it were a fiddle.Instruments & Performers Books
