Pirates of the Caribbean (Viola)

for Viola

By Klaus Badelt

Worth owning if you are a teacher and need something different occasionally. Could be tried to motivate a bored student. Comes only with CD backing so you cannot slow things down for the less able. Some of the bowing is questionable but mostly it is OK. "He's a Pirate...

" would be less awkward put up an octave.

My students like these to play. It motivates those who need something popular to play. The speed and rhthm patterns are challenging. I feel that the viola parts should have been written an octave higher. There would be less high third fingers and the range is still brighter. Playing mostly...

on C and G string is more difficult for beginners. The violin parts are therefore easier to play.

I really liked this book I found some songs really easy while others were hard but they are really fun to play. I highly recommend this book.
