Harmonious Melodies For Two Violins, Volume II is now a Revised Second Edition and is written with the intermediate to advanced student in mind. It includes the La Folia duo as well as the shorter pieces from Suzuki volumes 5-8. There are a total of 26 familiar, standard works (3 additional new pieces), including non-Suzuki works such as Bach Two-Part Inventions, Beethoven’s Fur Elise, Mozart’s Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, Massenet’s Meditation as well as the Veracini Gigue and the Fiocco Allegro. The second violin part moves in sync with the first violin part, while adhering to harmonies found in piano accompaniments.
Volume II is alphabetized according to composer names and can be used by teachers to help prepare students before they rehearse with a pianist or can actually be performed without a pianist.
