We bought this book on the teacher's recommendation for our daughter, who has been learning to play the violin for one year. These pieces have become her favorites. The simple parts are easy to memorize after a few repetitions, allowing for duet, trio, and quartet performances (each musician plays the same part but enters at different times, as indicated in the sheet music). It sounds very melodic and full! A truly worthwhile purchase. I recommend it.

A fun book if you are lucky enough to play with a string group! The tunes are progressive, which is nice. It didn't take long to find some favorites. Its a good feeling to have harmonies come together.

This is available for violin, viola, and cello. The cello version can be used with the bass. I understand that the idea has been extended by Mrs Starr to the piano. It is great fun, and it provides opportunity for students in the Suzuki and other programs to play in ensemble. Mr Starr has found many rounds and cannons which he has arranged here, and he has composed other rounds based on Suzuki tunes and other music.

My daughter is in Suzuki book 2; I wanted this book for her to practice reading, because I play violin too, and playing together is a fun way to get her really excited about reading. I bought the Kindle edition because the first four songs in the sample were each only one line long and appear a perfectly readable size on the Kindle (in landscape). I was afraid that the songs would be too easy, but figured "what the hey" - well, they get harder later in the book, including a couple of Suzuki book two songs that she hasn't learned yet (but I'm sure will love playing as rounds once we get to them). There are 80 songs in all, up to a page in length. If I can figure out how to return the Kindle version, I will, because I am going to have to buy the paperback book in order to get many of these songs in readable form.

We have been using this book for the Atlanta Cello Choir's beginner play-ins for over a year now. Our play-ins have anywhere from 6 to 12 cellists (all adults learning to play the cello). Sometimes we assign pieces ahead of time, but others we practice our site-reading with "surprise" choices. The arrangements in rounds means that everyone gets to play the melody as well as the harmonies. And it requires each person to really listen for coming in and matching the "lead line". Even though the arrangement are for "beginners", they are pleasing to the ear and really evoke the greatness of a cello choir.

Be aware that this music is written for treble instruments (violin, to be specific) not for voice. No words are provided, even for the folk songs or for other pieces that were originally intended to be sung.The readability, the typesetting, and the paper quality of this book are good.
