Summary of This Score
With Viola Ensembles, Volume 2, the viola steps out of the accompaniment role to become a true chamber music partner. The book offers duets designed to cover various pedagogical situations: playing with a violinist (viola-violin) or forming a small homogeneous ensemble (viola-viola). Each piece is presented with a melody part and a harmony part to strengthen vertical listening, sound balance, and entry precision.
The content of this volume is based on pieces from the early Suzuki levels and gathers an essential classical repertoire, particularly effective for structuring practice: "Chorus from Judas Maccabaeus" (G.F. Handel), "Musette, Gavotte II or the Musette from English Suite III in G Minor for Klavier, BWV 808" (J.S. Bach), "Bourrée from Sonata in F Major for Oboe and Basso Continuo, HHA IV/18, No. 8-EZ" (J.S. Bach), "Minuet in G, Wo0, No. 2" (L. van Beethoven), "Gavotte" (P. Martini), and "Minuet No. 2, Minuet, BWV Anh. II 116 from Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach" (J.S. Bach). An excellent resource for lessons, ensemble workshops, or simply to vary weekly practice with motivating and immediately musical viola duets.
