21 Pieces For Violin With Guitar

Heck, himself a guitarist and Suzuki parent, intended the arrangements to serve as interesting alternative accompaniments to the Violin School repertoire. The contrapuntal interest and enriched timbral possibilities of the violin-with-guitar combination result in unusually appealing chamber music performance pieces suited for young musicians. The intermediate-to-advanced level classical guitar notation is supplemented by chord symbols to enable non-classically trained guitarists to accompany the violin line
