The Step by Step series is a collection of exercise books/CDs for violin based on the Mother-Tongue approach. From the very beginning, it will provide a solid foundation in instrumental technique for Suzuki and traditional approaches in private lessons or group settings. The focus is on teaching correct, child-appropriate practice habits that range from listening, singing, and dancing to playing music. The ideas presented, including information for parent and practice tips should stimulate daily practice and also make it more effective. Includes new piano arrangements by David Andruss. This volume is based on Suzuki Violin School, Volume 2, and includes the Violin Exercise Book in English with the CD.
