Ragtime Fiddling Tunes for 2 Violas, arranged by Deborah Greenblatt (Greenblatt & Seay)

This wonderful collection of ragtime music contains 20 tunes composed by Felix Arndt, George Botsford, Helen S. Eaton, Irene M. Giblin, Marcella A. Henry, Charles L. Johnson, Scott Joplin, Joseph F. Lamb, Muriel Pollock, Arthur Smith, Charles A. Tyler, etc. The syncopated rhythms, the excursions out of first position, and the unexpected harmonies are sure to challenge the adventurous student, and the professional in search of entertaining, readable tunes with near-perfect page turns.

Each of the "Fiddle Tunes for Two" collections consists of individual spiral-bound books presented in score form with melody on the top line and harmony beneath. Individual books are available for Violins, Violas, Cellos, Basses, and Mandolins. The tunes in each book of each series are in the same keys and include guitar chords. For instance, a violinist and a cellist could play a wedding together if they each had the appropriate "Wedding Fiddling for Two" book. These books work particularly well for private lessons where teacher and student can take turns playing lead and harmony parts.
