We are preparing for a recital on March 8th, International Women's Day, and really wanted to include some repertoire from Amy Beach, the first successful American composer. So we have arranged the five pieces in her Children's Album Op.36 for piano: Minuet, Gavotte, Waltz, March and Polka -now for Two Violins!
You can see a preview video below and purchase the arrangement here. It is quite unbelivable how well these pieces work on the violin with the edited bows and fingering. The download includes two editions: one for advanced players (shown in the video) and a simpler one for students, without complex double-stops or shifts.
We hope you enjoy exploring this new repertorie with your students or Violin Duo partner.
