Hymn Melodies For Two Violins, Volume I contains 15 very well-known Christian hymns, with the Second Violin part having three verses of difficulty — easy, medium, then hard. The book is all in first position, with very manageable keys. The most challenging rhythmic values are mostly 8th notes, with occasional 16ths.
This volume is geared for students in Suzuki book 3-4 or for students studying the Bach Gavottes or Seitz concerti. It is an awesome, multi-purpose kind of volume. Try using it to (1) help students improve their reading skills, (2) share music at church services or (3) simply enjoy your love of hymns on your instrument with your friends!
