Eleven beautiful solos on favorite hymns and traditional sacred melodies. The selections are appropriate for worship celebrations throughout the church year. The keyboard accompaniment complements the violin part, and sometimes takes the melody while the violin plays a descant. Intermediate in difficulty, some pieces include double stops, use flat keys, and require mutes. These solos will enrich any worship setting.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A nice violin solo/piano accompaniment book,
By C Go (New Mexico) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mel Bay's Sacred Violin Solos (Mel Bay Presents) (Paperback)
This book is not for beginners, but it is close. When the music goes out of the 1st position, beginners can drop down an octave to keep playing. There is no CD to play along with, but there are still some beautiful songs and violin parts. The piano accompaniment part is also not beginner or too simple, but my son is able to work it out and play for me anyway. A nice book to be able to play some pretty songs in church.
