Book Reviews of The ABCs of Viola for the Absolute Beginner, Book 1
Book Review: Wonderful book for beginning adults...
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a great start to beginning adults' relationship with the viola. The exercises and warm-ups provide students with various opportunities to master specific skills before approaching the complexities of a piece. The selection of pieces are vast: folk songs, familiar tunes, ethnic songs and classical pieces. This makes it interesting and exciting for the adult student, whose musical taste can be diverse. I find that this book is a great introduction to the instrument without being scary, too easy, too childish or too complicated.
Summary of The ABCs of Viola for the Absolute Beginner, Book 1
This instruction book is the perfect start for an Absolute Beginner of any age on the Viola! There are many familiar folk, fiddle, sacred and classical melodies with short warm-up exercises and study pieces to advance students technically in an easy and enjoyable way! Simple duets, scales, a note-reading worksheet, a glossary of music terms and symbols (page 41) and practice chart are also included along with many graphs to show left-hand finger placement.This ABCs of Viola Book 1 is the first in a series of three Viola books. This series features melodies by composers such as Bach, Beethoven, Dvorak, Mozart and Tchaikovsky. Popular fiddle tunes like Arkansas Traveler, Irish Washer Woman and Turkey in the Straw, and some of the world's most loved melodies like Amazing Grace and Home on the Range appear. Christmas Carols Jingle Bells, Joy to the World, O Come All Ye Faithful, The First Noel and Deck the Halls, and Hanukah favorites My Dreydl and Hanukah are all included. Each book in the series has its own piano accompaniment book to help facilitate practice and recital performance. The ABCs of Viola Easy Piano Accompaniment for Book 1 is the ideal companion to The ABCs of Viola Book 1.
