Trade ReviewThis comprehensive collection of violin pieces is a super addition to the lexicon of violin albums. Each volume contains between 14 & 15 varied pieces in style period and technical demands. ….There is also an invaluable note on the cover page as to which pieces are in the current AB and Trinity exam board syllabuses. …The CD’s are of real benefit and good value for the purchase price of £10. Each gives 8 piano A’s (!) from which to tune, and also a useful click track preceding accompaniment tracks that start together with the violin.
