The work of British composer Percy Turnbull is less well known than some of his counterparts but interest in his works is steadily on the increase. Drawing from wide influences such as Roussel Fauré Delius and Bartok his individual and original compositional style often incorporates French and English music. Dating from the mid-1930s his Romance for Violin and Piano is typical of his work; unostentatious and uncomplicated while maintaining a sense of harmonic and technical mastery. Wonderfully written for Violin and Piano this is a vivid and eloquent piece that will be enjoyed by both listeners and performers.

Teacher and recording artist Craig Duncan has penned yet another excellent solo collection for the Violin student. These solos are well within the capabilities of the beginning Violin student playing in first position. The compositions feature works by Bartok Purcell Haydn von Gluck Handel Telemann Corelli Kabalevsky Beethoven Mozart C.P.E. Bach J.S. Bach and Dandrieu. These pieces are excellent for recitals or contests and can be used to teach important techniques. The Piano accompaniment is included in the book and also is available as an online download.
