comment: "This
series of books is perfect for enthusiastic students who like instant
gratification, and enjoy playing along to an upbeat CD accompaniment.
Great performance pieces for home concerts! Works very well in combination
with a more structured tutor book such as ‘A
New Tune A Day’ for older
students, or ‘Adventures in Violinland’ for younger students."
Fiddle Time Joggers written by Kathy and David Blackwell is a first book of very easy pieces for violin with
open string pieces and tunes using the finger pattern 0-1-2-3-4. There are
well-known tunes and original pieces from rock to calypso, using simple
slurs and a few dynamics. Notice-boards introduce new notes and rhythms
and there are easy duets to play. The accompanying CD provides
performances of all the pieces.
