This book is licensed to The Yasuda Music Company LLC by the International Suzuki Association and includes a selection of pieces from Suzuki books 2 and 3. Melody lines from Suzuki pieces are at a smaller font with grayscale, which fulfills copyright requirements.
As a continuation of Volume I, enjoy the rich, deep sounds of the cello and the brilliant, sparkling violin together in this second volume! Martha Yasuda has created a very novel book of duos where the melody begins in verse one with the cello and in verse two, it “Flip-Flops” over to the violin.
This volume is for intermediate players and contains thirteen familiar songs found in many method books. Keys chosen are those used in cello parts, with the violin "playing down a string." What a great way for sibs and close string buddies to enjoy playing their favorite tunes together!
Christopher Rex, retired Principal Cellist with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, kindly reviewed all the arrangements in this volume and was most gracious in writing a very supportive Foreword.
