Mel Bay In Concert: Intermediate Violin Solos or Duets with Piano for Advent, Christmas, and the Holiday Season - Birkhead-Flight - Book

Arranger: Angela Birkhead-Flight
Format: Score and Parts
Instrumentation: Violin / Violin Duet and Piano
Level: Intermediate

This collection of intermediate level Advent and Christmas pieces for violin(s) and piano includes some well-loved classics as well as pieces that will be new discoveries. While both beautiful and fun to play as duets, these pieces can also be performed as solo works using the Violin I part with the piano accompaniment. Each piece goes beyond a straightforward presentation of the main melody to bring a sense of joy and wonder to both the musicians and the listeners. These arrangements provide excellent opportunities for expression and collaborative playing; the melody often moves from part to part, and original material and fiddle tunes enhance the original melodies. Book includes the Score with separate pull-out parts for Violin 1 and Violin 2.

Perfect for use in church settings or in recitals, as solos, or as ensemble repertoire in group classes, this collection will bring joy to your holiday season.
