Viola Solos with piano accompaniment
My student and I love this book and the two CD. We are sorry there is no printed piano part so that she can use these solos at contest.

Good viola parts, wheres the piano?
I ordered the book , it came a week late, and I have an audition for college in a month. I finally received my book and came to find out there was no piano accompaniment sheet music, just a CD to listen to. Now I have to order another book and wait for the piano accompaniment sheet music. The table of contents of the book said there were 48 pages, the end being the piano parts, and my book stops at page 20. Thanks, MMO! NOT.

Excellent recording
As a viola teacher, I thoroughly recommend this recording and method, for intermediate players. The examples of performance are done beautifully and soulfully by Ms. Foster and Ms. Wingreen. I would buy more recordings done by this group.

Paul Doktor pieces at last!
At last an accompaniment for the well known Paul Doktor duets for piano and viola! Good piano accompaniment even if Kathleen Foster sets a rather poor example on the viola. Never mind, it encourages you to do better. By the way Paul Doktor's name is prominently displayed on the accompanying music.

People don't often ask for a viola solo
This is a chance to play solos with an infinitely patient accompanyist. There is another CD complete with the solos, in case you get stuck. Good fun, and good practice.

No mention of Paul Doktor?
These arrangements are the work of Paul Doktor for G. Schirmer. I assume a license was granted, but not even mentioning the name of the arranger is unconscionable.
