One of EMB s most successful composers and publishers, And-rás Soós, has devoted his latest volume to a special instrumental ensemble: three violins. No original works appear in it, in this collection, which aims at variety, we find transcriptions of choral works and piano and guitar pieces, etc. from the 14th to the 19th century. The main consideration in selecting the works was that the score should offer young violinists real chamber music, that is, if possible three equally important parts should share in the music-making.Für ein spezielles Instrumentalensemble, drei Violinen, stellte einer unserer erfolgreichsten Komponisten-Herausgeber, András Soós, seinen neuesten Band zusammen. Originalwerke kommen in ihm gar nicht vor, in der Sammlung, die eine Farbenvielfalt anstrebt, finden wir Transkriptionen von Chorwerken, Klavier- und Gitarrenstücken usw. aus den 14-19. Jahrhundert. Der Schwerpunkt der Sammlung war, dass das Notenmaterial den jungen Violinisten eine echte Kammermusik anbietet, beziehungsweise, dass am Musizieren möglichst drei gleichrangige Stimmen teilnehmen.

Learning to play chamber music is an important milestone in the music student’s journey. Playing with a teacher or friend helps develop rhythmic independence, intonation, listening skills, and sense of pulse that are vital to playing in an ensemble. These progressive duets offer beginning and developing players the opportunity to play along with others, or with the helpful support of the teacher in a lesson. Each duet adds new techniques and challenges that align with the natural advancement of lessons, moving from easy rhythms and keys to staccato bow strokes, slurs, accidentals (low or extended finger patterns), and more complex or independent rhythms. While the melody remains in the top line, musicians can alternate playing the melody as all efforts have been made to keep both parts at a similar difficulty level. This book features familiar melodies for the holidays, including sacred and secular Christmas songs, music for Hanukkah, and folk tunes from many countries. Appropriate for caroling, recitals, or chamber holiday concerts, there are 30 festive selections of different tempi, styles, and keys for variety, while remaining in string-friendly ranges. Each duet is one page or less in length, ensuring an immediate sense of success for young players. Put new skills into practice while celebrating the season.
