17 Titles with 34 Arrangements, 40 Total Pages
Including the same titles as Hymn Melodies: Double Stop Solos and Duets For Violin, Volume I, this book in the double stop series continues at a much higher level of difficulty. All arrangements are in both Duet and Double Stop formats as in Martha's earlier books, Christmas, American and Favorite Melodies.
Scroll to the bottom for a complete song list as well as key signatures.
Martha's novel concept to learn double stops begins by playing duets first, with the identical notes combined and rewritten as a double stop solo on the opposite page. As students play the duets first, their ear is given a nice example to help them along as they learn to play the double stop solos.
Volume II is for students that are in Suzuki book 6 and above (Fiocco Allegro, Handel Sonatas, Bach A Minor) and has challenges galore! You will find double stops in many higher positions and bowings that are equally challenging. Volume II is for a very technically solid player. Ideal for church services and special occasions.
