Description

(String). The two volumes of Trott's widely used etudes in melodious double stops for violin book are combined into one convenient, affordable volume. The violin music books for beginners contain the complete violin guide – Books I and II. Mastering and learning violin skills of double-stops with a violin music book for beginners is an essential perk for every violinist. Beginner players must notice that moving from a single note to a double stop, a double stop to a double stop, or a double stop to a single note is much harder than moving between single notes. Double-stops are the technique that gives the music a thick and full feel. Read more

  • Violin Study
A good addition to violin study.

  • In perfect condition, nothing is wrong with the inside, pages intact, great book overall
It's a good book that improves your violin finger agility and intonation through double stops. It's challenging, but super fun and satisfying when you learn to play the excerpts/etudes. A tip is to check if each double stop rings by playing them longer than it says on the music. Then, you can put it all together in the end and play it as it is. Overall, comes as good as promised, at least it did for me. :) ... show more

  • Very helpful double stops curriculum
As an adult beginner, this book is actually beautiful melodies to play as I learn instead of just random double stops to play. I also like that the first several melodies have one open string.

  • Enjoyable pieces
This book was recommended at a music camp and again by my private teacher. I was studying from another double-stop book and found this one much more enjoyable since they sound more like pieces than pure exercises. It is also a bit more gradual learning curve between each piece as compared to the other double-stop book I was using. That said, it still takes me a bit of studying with each piece and some makes me want to tear my hair out initially but hey, that's what practicing/learning is for - overcome challenges and eventually master it. ... show more

  • Great double stops studies
I love this book and I recommend it to all my violin students. It has easy double stops exercises with beautiful melodies and gradually increase difficulty. Great book for any violin studio. I believe it is good for a student that has been practicing regularly for about 2 years or more.

  • I'm facing it.
There is no magic key to double stops, at least not that I've found. I bought this based on recommendations of others, and my violin teacher was kind enough to let me try it. So far, having skipped a few of the most basic pieces, I'm finding it challenging to make my efforts sound like music, but the pieces are pretty, and not too beyond my reach, so I keep "plugging away," which is exactly how it sounds. Somehow I hoped, though, that the exercises themselves would point me to what I was doing wrong specifically, so that I could change it, but so far that hasn't happened. If anyone has found the key, can you let me know? ... show more

  • Great
Great edition. Glad I have it in book format now instead of pages scattered everywhere in my house.

  • Great for students! A must have!
As a violin instructor I highly recommend this book to my students as it builds their understanding of double stops and intervals in a fun way. The exercises are designed as songs so its not like they are just learning drills. This book is a great springboard for students wishing to play more advanced pieces involving chords/double stops and counterpoint melodies on violin. ... show more
