This is a mega-bundle of the two books of essential string quartet repertoire; it comprises both volumes making a total of 47 pieces in total and over 550 pages of music. When you consider that this also includes the following, which are classed as '1 piece each': 15 Christmas Carols, a complete Brandenburg Concerto and 12 Variations on 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star', the value for money is excellent. The arrangements are well-written and impressive to listen to.
Difficulty levels range from intermediate to advanced, and provide something for everyone to enjoy. A score and full sets of parts are provided for each piece, and the repertoire covers Christmas music, wedding music (and Jewish wedding music), slow melodies, traditional Welsh melodies, baroque classics, famous symphonic melodies, piano works and other popular pieces.
