Viola Time Sprinters - Book & CD
Viola Time Sprinters by Kathy and David Blackwell is the third book in the Viola Time progression, designed for developing players ready to extend their fingering, shifting and bowing technique through a varied collection of pieces.
Move Beyond the Early Viola Grades
The book introduces low second fingers, high third fingers, second and third position work, and a wider range of bowing techniques including spiccato, hooked bowing and string crossing. Original pieces, classical repertoire and equal-level duets keep the material musical and varied.
