Strings Together contains nine four-part pieces for beginner string ensembles; all are in first position and gradually increase in level of difficulty. The fingering patterns have been kept simple. The piano part offers great support and is a welcome musical addition. Strings Together contains both well-known and newly written pieces, in various exciting styles! This set contains two first violin parts, two second violin parts, one viola part, one third violin part (viola), one cello part (double bass) and one score (piano accompaniment).
This suite is made up of five pieces each derived from a single line of melody. The music originates from the medieval period spanning approximately four centuries. The pieces are varied in style ranging from a ballad to an instrumental dance. They are designed to encourage confidence in ensemble playing and improve technique -
