Famous Songs for Young Players - Beginner Book by Evelyn AvSharian

This book features twelve recognizable themes arranged from classical works by Beethoven, Haydn, Tchaikovsky, Brahms, Handel, Kabalevsky, Mozart, and more. There is no introduction or text, allowing for freedom of teaching style and for the focus to be on the large easy-to-read notation. Despite the simplicity and easy playability of each selection, the themes offer modulation, an array of different phrasing, and mixed-modal melodies. Entirely in first position with eighth, quarter, and half notes. Bowings included, but not fingerings. 16 pages.
