Published by the Editions Leduc Val?rie Bime-Apparailly’s instrumental beginner books – such as ‘Je d?bute le violon’ and ‘Mes premi?res doubles cordes en chansons’ – have enjoyed overwhelming popularity since the day they were published. This excellent educator here turns her attention to the delicate matter of studies: how can these pieces be made less tedious for young violinists? With a crisp clear design enhanced by drawings and carefully crafted explanatory notes the MyFirst Studies To Play Together collection for Violin takes away the dreariness of these pieces giving them beyond their technical importance a musical charm that appeals to 2nd and 3rd year students.
