Very Comprehensive Learning Tool
A good concept in learning the technique of holding the violin and placing of fingers on the violin fretboard. Additionally you'll learn a few scales, how to read quarter, half notes, etc. However there is no CD nonetheless I felt from reading many beginner violin books this book utilized an exceptional method to learn from. I highly recommend this book to adults with a real compassion to learn how to play the violin. I don't believe the material is written for children perhaps older than ten years of age but again must have a desire to learn. I have from Amazon purchased some very good videos and books I have no instructor but I can read music which does help. However learning to play the violin is definitely a challenge I believe this one particular book will certainly be one of my favorite. I'm going get good use out of it. Remember if your on a self-taught course MANY learning tools are best and Amazon has MANY if not ALL.
