n 20 Progressive Solos for String Instruments
Applebaum. These solos, with piano accompani-
ment, can be used by individual players as well as for
performance by groups. They have proven effective
for recruiting string players in the public schools,
and for string classes, solo contests and string
festivals. Each piece has a distinct value, either for
development of certain rhythms, for the development
of the left hand and bow arm, and for development of
style and musicianship. For more advanced players,
these pieces may include shifting into the third
position. The third position fingerings may be added
by the student or the teacher. Published for violin,
viola, cello, string bass, and piano accompaniment.
