About
- An approach based on self-learning and recognition of rhythmic and melodic patterns - Original tunes not abstract sight-reading exercises - 150 carefully graduated pieces in a range of musical styles - Five sections related to the technical development of the viola player - Tunes progress to eventually include key signatures up to five sharps and flats; whole-tone, chromatic, modal and atonal elements are also incorporated - Each section concludes with duets and accompanied pieces for practice of ensemble sight-reading - Tunes range from Grade 4 to advanced
