      Great Series

      Don't listen to "absolutely stupid," because they clearly don't know what they're talking about. The key containing three sharps is A Major, which is the FIRST KEY that violinists everywhere learn to play in. Guess what? Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, the first piece that Suzuki students learn (many when they...

      I like it a lot!

      this book along with the DVD is so good. Considering I never touched a violin before I'm doing pretty well on my own. Has inspired a new interest I'll keep doing. Probably private lessons. Would definitely recommend this and the DVD to new people trying violin.

      Good book for an older adult beginner

      This book is more appropriate for starting an adult beginner. Most other books are designed for young children beginning.
