Product description
Fiddle Time is a series of titles that offers a selection of suitable and attractive pieces not only for pupils and students of music schools. In the books you will find original compositions by the authors as well as well-known classical and popular tunes, national songs and easy duets.
The Fiddle Time Sprinters book brings you compositions and melodies for early intermediate violin players.
The enclosed CD contains recordings of most of the pieces in the book, so that pieces with piano accompaniment are recorded twice, the first time the demo version and the second time just the piano accompaniment. The duets are recorded only once, so that the left channel plays one voice and the right channel plays the other voice, and by switching between channels you can practice and play along with the recording on the CD.
The piano accompaniment book can be purchased separately (code: OUP398580).
