Stringsongs for viola; Shiela Nelson (Boosey & Hawkes)

Stringsongs for viola develop the reading skills begun in Tetratunes, by the use of singing and part-playing, without requiring the more advanced keys or position work. The main aims are developing musicianship, the use of basic bowing skills for interpretation, accurate pitching based on singing and well-understood scales, and the ability to listen to a contrasting part.
