Description :

Masterful duo Mary Cohen and Robert Spearing team up once again in this wonderful collection of original pieces for established beginner string quartet.

Quartetstart Level 2 is full of stimulating and enjoyable repertoire which has been carefully devised for string players of around ABRSM Grade 2–3. Building on the skills and ideas first introduced in Quartetstart Level 1, this truly original collection explores a wide range of musical styles as well as many interesting string effects (including simple harmonics, collegno, pizzicato and tremolo). Containing invaluable rehearsal tips throughout, these imaginative pieces will give string players the opportunity to discover the joys of ensemble playing right from the early stages of learning.

A violin 3 alternative to the viola part is provided.
