Give your beginning strings a taste of success early on! All the studies show the positive effect of doing a first concert as soon as possible, and that's what this collection is all about. Each of these short concert pieces uses only the notes and skills a student learns in the first dozen pages of a method book! Of the 13 pieces, five are completely pizzicato and four more may be performed pizzicato or arco. The piano accompaniments are interesting and creative without being too difficult. The online audio offers background accompaniment to five of the concert pieces. Get your beginners started off right!
