This instruction book is the perfect start for an Absolute Beginner of any age on the Viola! There are many familiar folk, fiddle, sacred and classical melodies with short warm-up exercises and study pieces to advance students technically in an easy and enjoyable way!

This ABCs of Viola Book 1 is the first in a series of three Viola books. This series features melodies by composers such as Bach, Beethoven, Dvorak, Mozart and Tchaikovsky. Popular fiddle tunes like Arkansas Traveler, Irish Washer Woman and Turkey in the Straw, and some of the world's most loved melodies like Amazing Grace and Home on the Range appear.

Each book in the series has its own piano accompaniment book to help facilitate practice and recital performance.
