More Viola Fun picks up where Viola Fun left off - with 15 easy viola pieces for the second year student. The lower string is not used and the fingering patterns - while still simple - are now combined. Several new rhythmic challenges are explored. The attractive accompaniments on the CD and the wonderful illustrations give this book extra appeal.
