Reviews
Press reviews
‘The building of technique, understanding and reading … are very thorough and usefully progressive... Set III is especially good for middle grade viola pupils for the introduction of treble clef with frequent switching between the two clefs.’ European String Teachers Association ‘These transcriptions are a welcome addition to the young violist’s etude repertoire... they are musically varied and explore many keys, time signatures, tempos, and bow strokes. Throughout the three levels, sensible fingerings and suggestions for bow division are offered.’ American Music Teacher
