Early Start on the Violin Volume 3 — Duet Playing for Young Violinists

Early Start on the Violin Volume 3 is the third book in the Sassmannshaus Tradition, a four-volume beginner violin method first published in German in 1976 and adapted for English-speaking children. This volume emphasises duet playing, with elementary duets, dances and pieces in a variety of keys, rhythms and musical styles. Different finger patterns and bowing strokes are practised through ensemble pieces, making it a natural next step after the solo material in Volumes 1 and 2.

What This Book Contains

The stapled performance score spans 71 pages in a 30.0 × 23.0 cm format and includes two individual violin parts so teacher and student can play together.

It suits young violinists who have completed the first two volumes and are ready to develop ensemble listening, rhythm and intonation through duet repertoire.
