Summary of This Book
This collection opens the door to a world of traditional violin music, with a selection of pieces that recreate a festive and warm atmosphere: folk dances, jazz club jam spirit, or café-concert vibes. Some themes are immediately recognizable, others more exotic, but all share an essential commonality: authenticity of sources and respectful writing of the style.
Each title in the series is offered in two versions to suit your practice. The Violin Edition focuses on the violin part, with the option of a simplified line and guitar chords to facilitate accompaniment. The Complete Edition goes further by including keyboard accompaniments and a violin accompaniment part, ideal for forming a duo or small ensemble with a richer texture.
Beyond the sheet music, the pedagogical approach makes the difference: Edward Huws Jones, drawing on his travels and research on traditional styles, places each piece in its context and shares practical advice for achieving a more lively interpretation (articulation, phrasing, pulse, and character). An excellent choice for intermediate-level violinists wishing to enrich their folk repertoire and gain in style.
