  • Excellent for young beginners
I am a violin teacher, and use this series for my 4-6 year olds. The notes are introduced one at a time, are large, and there is not too much 'noise' on the pages. The songs are relevant and my students are very successful. It's great for teaching note reading along with how to play. This is a GREAT book for young learners. I would not use it for older kids, but it's perfect for my younger ones. They stick with it and do not get frustrated and give up. I highly recommend. ... show more

  • Great music song books for beginning players of all ages in their first few years of study and practice
Excellent beginner books for the violin or viola player in their first or second year. Larry Newman has an entire series of music books for violin, viola and cello that are all excellent for players in their first few years. I would not consider these lesson books, but books to supplement beginner players to learn more popular songs. For my young boys, I have the Don't Fret colored finger guide on their 1/4 and 1/2 violins. Then to help them find the correct notes, I will sometimes use a blue, yellow, pink and green or orange highlighter to color the notes on sheet music. I know it's a learning crutch, but it makes finding and playing the correct note faster and easier....the more positive feedback they get in playing a correct note, the longer they stay with learning music and different musical instruments (I hope). I also like the books because the songs are also easy enough for the beginner player to start memorizing songs too. Between the cello, violin and viola, I think we own all of them. ... show more

  • My student loves it!
I have a 7 year old student who has struggled with attention span during lessons. I started her out with the Essential Elements violin book, which was fine, but I saw that she was loosing interest and she said that the notes were too small. Essential Elements is a great book, but my student really needed something that was written especially with the young student in mind with pictures and big print, just as the beginner piano books are. After finding this on Amazon and getting it for her, I am pleased to say that this book made all the difference for her. She says it's a lot easier and more fun. If you have students 9 years old and under this might be the key to retaining their interest! :) ... show more

  • Was a favorite beginner book but now it is not because they put competitor advertisement on cover.
My students have really enjoyed this book! The titles of each little song is funny and makes the learning so much nicer! In the notes are great big letters with the name of the note inside them. It makes learning Violin so much more friendly. Especially when they need something to make them comfortable right at the beginning ! However, Recently this company has put their competitor advertisement on the front cover for their Virtual Online lessons. As a teacher I can't give out a book that advertises another teacher!! So I have changed back to Strictly Strings and Basic Fiddler's Philharmonic Book with the big notes. This is why I took off a star, but I really think this could be a one star if you are a teacher. If you are a student, it is a good book and fun. ... show more
