Team Strings 2: Violin follows directly on from the original Team Strings series. It is a flexible and adaptable course designed for beginner violins; each piece is carefully graded to ensure a logical progression at a sensible pace, and the course can be tailored to suit students' individual needs.
Students are introduced to a wide variety of musical styles throughout the book. This second series has been enhanced by jazz and blues titles, and offers opportunities to develop playing, compositional and improvisational techniques. Team Strings 2 also includes all of the scales for the relevant grades set by the major examination boards. Imaginative piano accompaniments have been provided, and the volume comes complete with helpful notes, clear ensemble scores and downloadable online audio of backing tracks.
The Team Strings series is suitable for use with individuals or groups, since it has been carefully written to support almost any combination of string instruments the teacher may encounter. All of the books in the series are fully integrated to allow ensemble playing with students using Team Strings, Team Woodwind, Team Percussion, Team Recorder and Team Brass.
