Violin book for pizzicato and early ensemble playing
de Haske Pizz & Play is a violin book that builds violin learning step by step from pizzicato, plucking the string. By putting the bow aside for a while, you can first focus on the basics of the left and right hand before combining arco and pizzicato. That makes this method book suitable for students at Very Easy - Easy level.
Written by Gunter van Rompaey, this edition has 28 pages and comes as BOOK plus CD. The international language indication makes it widely usable in lessons and for practice at home.
Play along with CD accompaniment
Each piece on the CD includes two play-along versions. First there is a track with accompaniment only; in addition, there is a version with accompaniment and melody, with the melody played alternately by different instruments. This helps you study a part more clearly and practise the second voice with extra support.
The contents include 14 pieces, among them Polly Had a Little Lamb, Pizzy Polka, Poco CanCan, Pater Jacob and Plucky Waltz. If you are looking for an accessible violin book with CD that puts pizzicato at the centre, the Haske edition Pizz & Play fits well in the first stage of violin lessons.
