Review:

Appealing melodies, a fascinating compilation that is certain to attract violists of the present day. There is a need for new viola repertoire and these delightful and well-crafted arrangements eminently fill the gap. (Stringendo (Australia))

All the pieces are interesting and enjoyable to play. These volumes are well written, extremely useful and are good value for money. (MMA Ensemble)

All are well arranged and edited, and the piano accompaniments are simple but musically satisfying. (Music Teacher)

Synopsis:

With well-crafted and idiomatic arrangements of music from the thirteenth century to the present day, this work presents them in chronological order, showing the year in which they were written. Carefully arranged by Philip Bass and Paul Harris to practise the note ranges and keys of the early grades, it includes straightforward piano accompaniments. It allows you to get a real feel for the different styles of music through time and is an invaluable source of further study and recital repertoire.
