1Melodious … Original … Instructive
2STRING ENSEMBLE COLLECTIONS
3by LEOPOLD AUER and GUSTAV SAENGER
5A FINAL achievement of the late Leopold Auer, famous violinist and teacher of Heifetz, Elman, Zimbalist and many other distinguished artists, was the completion of this progressive series of original and instructive ensemble folios. While designed as a sort of companion work to the "Leopold Auer Graded Course of Violin Playing", these compositions are so interesting and worthwhile in their own right that we recommend them to the special attention of all educators in search of string ensemble material suitable to the needs of student musicians.

3996 Melodious Duets for Two Violins

The duets however, are designed principally for entertainment and particularly to prove to the beginner what pleasing, melodious and striking effects can be produced with the most limited technical means.
43The gradual development of First Position fingering is practically illustrated in this Book through ninety-six melodious duets. These duets are systematically planned in four sections, providing for use of first finger only with open strings: first and second fingers only with open strings: first, second and third fingers only with open strings: first, second, third and fourth fingers with open strings, offering entertainment, playing experience and instruction all in one.
