(More customer reviews)My daughter is part way through suzuki book 2 and this is still ahead of her level by quite a lot. I was hoping there might be at least one tune in there she could learn now to have something different at her recital than everyone playing suzuki, plus I thought she would get a kick out of learning something from a Princess movie.
Many of the tunes change key part way through, and they are not the standard keys taught at least to this point. We were most interested in 'A whole New World' from Aladdin, (and the other Disney Princess songs in the book) but will have to wait as it is in F major. It does look to be the easiset in the book.
The last 1/4 of 'Prince Ali' from Aladdin is in a key with 3 flats (excuse my lost music theory knowledge, I haven't done it since I was a kid!), which includes the open strings of A and E, definitely not for a beginner violinist - I wonder why they chose this key? 'Belle' from Beauty and the Beast starts off nicely in D major , but ends in F major, with many other flats thrown in.
The CD will be very helpful when she comes to try them as there are some more complicated rhythms.
I am afraid by the time she gets to the skill level of these tunes she may be past her Princess stage, which is a shame :-) (she is 7)
