New Edition

21 Pieces for Violin Players With Online Play Along Audio

The book “Shooting Stars – Violin Book With Online Audio” is a new edition featuring 21 pieces intended for violin players. It includes online play-along audio resources to enhance the learning experience. This book is part of the Boosey & Hawkes Easy String Music series, which was created by Katherine & Hugh Colledge. The series consists of four volumes of repertoire designed for new and developing string players and is highly regarded by both teachers and students.

The series is known for its effective approach of gradually introducing and reinforcing new techniques, fingerings, notes, and rhythms, providing students with a solid foundation for their future learning. For each volume in the series, demonstration and accompaniment audio resources are available online, which serve as valuable tools for practice and performance. Each title is available in two editions: a standalone string book for students or an expanded edition with additional piano accompaniment.

In “Shooting Stars,” which is the fourth volume of the series, the focus is on 01-2-3-4 and 01-2-34 finger patterns, including the augmented 2nd between the 1st and 2nd fingers. The pieces introduce triplets, basic syncopation, and chromaticism, along with some new bowing techniques and a piece in five-time signature.
