ReviewsWritten for violinists of three or more years' experience, this is primarily an educational resource rather than a collection of authentic world music. However, style has been closely imitated and the pieces are likely to be more satisfying for students to play than authentic tunes, which are harder to master . . . This book as an educational package is second to none, with fresh and lively presentation and violin accompaniments, technical warm-ups and backing tracks for eachpicece, as well as piano parts in PDF format on the enhanced CD. Thoroughly recommended for a varied musical diet.
