Finished!!!

1/25/2013

0 Comments

 
After countless hours I have updated the 32 songs with dynamics, tempos, articulation, bowings, and lyrics for violin, viola cello, and bass (96 total variations!).
  • Every instrument is in the same key for the each song so people may play the music together. 
  • From now on I will be grouping cello, and bass together because they are usually very similar, and hopefully it will make the website less cluttered. 
  • The "Christmas Album" is now the "Holiday Album" so I may add other songs to the group that are not specifically Christmas.  The "Classical Love Songs" is now just "Classical Music" so I may add a larger variety of songs to the book. 
  • The books are now available, but will be without a table of contents.  This is so I may more easily update them with new songs.  Most books will be alphabetically by name, while the Classical one will be alphabetically by composer.

Thank you for your patience.  I finished this much faster than I planned.  Hopefully now I will get to a couple new tutorials!

I got a wonderful email about Vincent in Arizona who found this site, has downloaded a bunch of music, and is learning some of the songs.  I will get to fiddle tunes up very soon, but for the time being enjoy the music that is available, and keep on playing!

Finished eight songs today.  I have been adding some slurs, dynamics, bowings, and articulations to the music.  Once the songs are all up I will be taking down the full books until I am able to compile the new editions together again.  Everything that will be in the book will be available for single download on the site already.

In the future I plan to add a new song every couple weeks
I will be taking requests
