Great for beginners

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 May 2015

Verified Purchase

This is a very good book for beginners however mine did not come with the CD which was disappointing as it would have been great to play along to. Tne book has some very good diagrams for how to hold the bow etc. The book is also quite good for learning to read the C cleft which unless you are a violist you probably don't know how to read. The order they put things in the book is a bit weird and they don't teach you how to bow until quite far in. Overall very easy to understand and follow.

Le livre est parfait et la livraison rapide. Par contre, la taille du carton est exagéré pour un si petit livre.

Self-Study Users Need to Contact Site to Set Up Account

Reviewed in the United States on 10 September 2017

Verified Purchase

I've been a big fan of Essential Elements books. I've been studying with Hal Leonard since I was a kid. Aside from the useful information in the book, many of their books had audio CDs. This is nice for me, because I can't always understand music--even though I've learned to read it--unless I hear it. I understand basic notes, but the more complicated music baffles me in written form, so I do better playing by ear.

When I decided to take up viola, I looked for Essential Elements. They don't do CDs anymore but online sites. BUT, I encountered something that initially was discouraging. This company assumes most of its users are enrolled in classes. I guess it is primarily used by music teachers. Though I had a student activation code, I needed a teacher to register me on the site first. The problem is, I am self-study...so initially it looked like I wouldn't have access to the web site. I did find another web address in the back of the book that had the lessons for the book but lacked some of the bells and whistles of their main site. The main site has the ability to record and has other helpful features. Their secondary site is just a library.

However, I contacted the company, and they set up an account for me--so now I have access to the main site. If you are self-study like me, you will have to contact them--but they are very nice about it. If you are under thirteen, your parents will need to do it. Otherwise, they just need to know what instrument you are playing and that you are over thirteen years of age.
