A selection of carefully graded pieces in a range of musical styles for beginner string players. 

Many string programmes have been started and nurtured using these works!  All parts are in unison and the range restricted to the one octave D major scale.

The keys and the style of the pieces, however, change throughout. Technical and musical issues have been carefully sequenced for the beginning player.  

The piano accompaniments are attractive and are quite manageable for teachers with limited keyboard skills.

Grade: 1.
