"This transposition of the Suzuki Violin School makes available to the beginning viola student the carefully structured repertoire of The Suzuki Method®- a method that teaches basic playing skills and develops listening and memorizing ability through the playing of beautiful music. [...] This volume is also recommended for violinists who wish to become familiar with the viola and reading of the alto clef. [...] Many of the solos in this volume are written in the same keys as those in the corresponding Suzuki Cello School repertoire; also, some solos can be played with the compositions in the Suzuki Violin School."--Page 2.
