My son is just learning to sight-read.The music here is more interesting than just doing scales, and just challenging enough without being discouraging.I'm not sure if the latter part of the book (in the more obscure keys) will be that useful since I'm not aware of much violin repertoire for those keys. Would have been better to have more snippets in the more common keys.
As a Suzuki teacher, I recommend this for my students (right after Joanne Martin's I Can Read Music) for excellent sight reading practice. The book is arranged by keys, although I assign them in different order because I don't think C major is the easiest key to start reading in for violin. The first half of the book is just quarter and half notes, the second half gets a little more advanced. After this, they are ready for Wolfahrt or Whistler's Introducing the Positions.
this book can be used for kids, teenagers, or adults. easy to read 1/2 page etudes are easy to finish in a short period of time and improve skills. Great pre-Wohlfahrt book.
I am playing it now. Is very easy to read and use. Good for a beginner, and some want to get started play again (that's me). Good way to get your fingers moving, and give to confidence.
This book was recommended by my daughter's violin teacher. It's perfect for her playing level. It has a nice selection of pieces.
