- Learning by playing together -
The Ensemble Violin Method is designed for schools on request of string coordinators to match My Cello Method. 
The player will be guided step by step in an enjoyable way, so that learning follows easily without unexplained or unprepared steps. The pieces chosen reaches from easy studies and traditional songs, fiddle tunes and dances to well known pieces.
The Method introduces the first Position including reading music, the basics of playing violin including Slurs, Staccato, Double stops.  
The accompaniments to all pieces are at the same level as the melodies, making it possible to play together from the very beginning.
Combined with the online cello course it opens up creating an instant little orchestra, even where is no specialist cello teacher.
