My Trio Book

This book contains all of the pieces from Volumes 1 and 2 of the Suzuki Violin School arranged for three violins. They can be played with or without piano accompaniment, which expands their performance possibilities. Another advantage of these arrangements is that students at different playing and reading levels can make music together. The score contains a chart that lists the level of difficulty of each piece and each part so that the teacher can easily assign parts. A CD is available containing all of the trio arrangements. The tempi are purposely slower than the traditional Suzuki recordings to enable students to read and play along more easily. All of the parts were purposely kept as simple as possible. A table listing the reading skills required for each piece is found in the back of the violin 2 and violin 3 books. The student can see at a glance what is required to read the piece and any specific deficiencies can be improved upon.
