Reviews

  • 'The inside cover of Viola Time Scales reads: "WARNING! Open this book and you may seriously enjoy playing scales and arpeggios!" And that just might be true. Viola Time Scales is a fantastically fun little exercise book laid out in two-page sections for each key that it presents . . . It is useful for any student just learning to read music and might even serve as a first étude book. The book is well organized, increasing with difficulty and skill as it progresses.' -Regan Toews, Canadian Viola Society Newsletter, Autumn 07

The specification in this catalogue, including without limitation price, format, extent, number of illustrations, and month of publication, was as accurate as possible at the time the catalogue was compiled.
