A viola method book that's fun for both children and adults by Janice Tucker Rhoda.
The ABCs of Viola Book 2 is the perfect instruction book for the Intermediate student of any age on the Viola! As a direct continuation of the ABCs of Viola Book 1, you will enjoy learning more slurred bowing techniques and rhythms as well as many new key and time signatures.
Lovely melodies abound like Amazing Grace, Cherry Blossoms, Joy to the World, Beautiful Dreamer, Row Your Boat, Deck the Halls, Auld Lang Syne, Tchaikovsky's Piano Concert Theme, Haydn's Surprise Symphony, Beethoven's Russian Folk Song and Mozart's Minuet, to name a few.
Fun Study Pieces and many warm-up exercises along with scales, a note-reading worksheet and practice chart are also included with graphs to show new left-hand finger placement.
This ABCs of Viola Book 2 is the second in a series of three viola books. All three books will help prepare you to play duets, string quartets, and in your local community orchestra's viola section. Add The ABCs of String Orchestra - Viola Part for additional reinforcement. In addition, The ABCs of Viola Easy Piano Accompaniment for Book 2 will help facilitate practice and recital performance.
