A third book of 21 pieces for beginner-Fast Forward is the third book of this ever popular series containing 21 pieces which help build skills using new finger patterns and varied bowing techniques. Ideal for beginner Viola players with Piano Accompaniment. This is the Viola part only; a separate volume is available which includes the Piano part. This series has been created by Katherine Colledge and Hugh Colledge and edited by Sheila M. Nelson.  Note that this is not a book for beginners in the sense that it will teach you how to play theinstrument; it is however a collection of additional pieces for a cellist of beginner standard to learn in order to expand their repertoire. Throughout the book new rhythms and compound times are introduced along with a wider range of expression marks and some varied bowings.

Clarinet Sonata op. 107-Just as Johannes Brahms had done with his Opus 120 Reger also provided parts for two alternative solo instruments for his Sonata op. 107: 'I will also arrange the clarinet part for viola so that the work can also be played thus'(letter to his publisher). He by no means wanted to leave the arrangement of the viola part to the publisher as slurs had to be changed here and there as well as octave transpositions had to be made - 'only I can do this work!'The viola’s sonorous mid range comes close to that of the clarinet but lends the work its own timbre. Viola players will also value this Urtext edition on account of the practical fingerings and bowing marks.

The 18 pieces in Volumes 1 and 2 are structured to follow the same progression of finger patterns introduced in the Early Start method. This systematic progression helps the student to solidify the hand position and improve intonation. The basic bowing techniques do not require changes in bow speed or sounding point. The young performer can focus on a straight and beautifully placed bow that produces a pleasing and clear sound. Volume 1 can be used as a supplement to the 'Early Start on the Viola method', Volumes 1 and 2 (BA 9686 and BA 9687). Volume 2 (BA 8991) can be used as a supplement to the 'Early Start on the Viola method?, Volume 2 (BA 9687). / Alto Et Piano (Ou 2 Altos)

Viola and piano reduction of Tower's one-movement concerto for viola and orchestra.

Along with the Stamitz concerto Hoffmeister‘s Viola Concerto is the most important audition piece for Viola players. Yet it has been handed down in a complicated source tradition surviving ina single contemporary manuscript covered with many layers of markings. Our Piano reduction reconstructs for the first time the earliest textual layer in this source thereby coming as close as possible toHoffmeister‘s actual intentions. The reconstructed original is accompanied by a detailed critical commentary. Fingering and bowing marks have been added by no less a musician than Kim Kashkashian!
