The Catscratchbook
$19.95
10 violin duets, all about cats, to challenge, provoke and above all, enjoy. In the words of Aleksey Igudesman himself “these are not the most conventional children’s pieces. But I do not believe that children are conventional either.” The pieces are unusual – certainly, and they will undoubtedly make an impact on young players with the support of illustrations, poems, notes from the composer and a CD with inspiring demonstration performances and play-along tracks for both 1st and 2nd violins. The poems come with the recommendation to “read them out loud before you perform the pieces and you are guaranteed a smiling public!”

Care must be taken to keep the melody always in the forefront, changing, as it does, from part to part.
