Chamber music is an essential part of learning to play an instrument, and these versatile trios are written so that they can be performed by any combination of three string instruments. These arrangements and compositions by prominent string pedagogue Doris Gazda will sound full and satisfying whether they are played by only three instruments or a full string orchestra. The selection of music in Progressive Trios for Strings covers a wide variety of musical styles that will provide hours of enjoyment and performance options. For example, the collection includes an arrangement of the “Bridal Chorus” from the opera Lohengrin, a perfect piece to play at a wedding. The The trios are progressively organized by level of difficulty as the performers advance in their skills. A welcome addition to the repertoire for all string players wishing to build their ensemble skills.
