A fresh approach-* An approach based on self-learning and recognition of rhythmic and melodic patterns * Original tunes rather than abstract sight-reading exercises * 237 carefully graded pieces in a range of musical styles * Nine sections ranging from open strings to extensions and slurs * Each section concludes with a set of duets and accompanied pieces for practice of ensemble sight-reading * Tunes progress to all key signatures up to four sharps and three flats * Preliminary towards grade 4
