Melodische Übungsstücke
This Melodious Piece Op. 149, No. 2 was originally composed for Piano Four Hands in the key of C Major.This score is a transcription for viola with piano accompaniment.
It is especially well suited for beginner violists, as it uses only the five notes on the D string : D-E-F#-G-A.
For more challenge, pupils can try to play this piece on the other strings as well.
The piano accompaniment is made up of right-hand chords accompanied by staccato bass notes in the left hand.
This is a truly beautiful piece for beginner violists : even though it is very easy, the melodic line is lyrical and quite charming.
Duration : 02:16
