Description
Book SynopsisPresents an introduction to the wonderful world of traditional music - favourite tunes passed down from one generation to the next, many from the early pioneer days. This collection, available for violin, viola and cello, includes music of many different styles and moods.
Trade ReviewHere are a few dozen of the catchiest, best loved folk tunes for the Grade 1-2 cellist. Another attractive production in the Mary Cohen Superseries for solo cello; most tunes are compatible with the equivalent volume for violin and viola. Only once in the 39 pieces will the player be asked to shift.
