Sheet Music

I will let you know which books your child will need during our lesson; please do not order without instruction. This is a helpful list to refer to in case you have difficulty locating the materials online.

Note: I recommend purchasing directly from Sheetmusicplus.com, sharmusic.com, or Oxford University Press for the Fiddle Time series. Amazon’s a bit dodgy.
