Suzuki Violin School 3 Hahn + CD: International Edition

Bought this together with the other volumes... Wow! Hilary Hahn did an amazing job.. yes! two level up! Piano part sounds fantastic too!Audiophile CD just went into the trusty ahdiophile player and whoa... the learner’s CD can’t be told apart from regular classical music CD! Hilary Hahn and her duo has done it!! Worth getting! worth getting!

I'm slightly unsure what I am reviewing here, is it the material (well known since many many years), also I don't have other editions to compare to but this is the version I bought - I don't know what 'international' version means in this context but seemed a safe bet - perhaps because it has explanations in 4 languages: english, french, german, and spanish. It also comes with a CD, although there are many Suzuki recordings available everywhere it's so easy to find the piece to listen to.I was surprised to find this must be a very new version as it has Hilary Hahn performing.I don't know if they really can guarantee it or there are older versions too with someone else, and it's not super important but it was a nice touch.

ヒラリー・ハーンのＣＤが欲しくて購入しました。演奏者によって教本曲が違った感じで聴けて新鮮です。

Acheté pour aborder différentes techniques de jeu d'archet, de rythmes et de difficultés pour pouvoir progresser et compléter une formation instrumentale. Le CD comprend des enregistrement d'une très grande qualité de la virtuose Hilari Hahn, qui permet de saisir les nuances de jeu, d'intensité, d'attaques.Ce livre a permis l'obtention de progrès significatifs, gratifiant. Le seul bémol que j'ai trouvé, c'est le nombre de pulsations insuffisantes avant chaque début de morceaux, ce qui est trop juste : on est obligé de hâter la prise en main de son instrument dès que l'on fait jouer le fichier, ce qui est très inconfortable.

The violin is a difficult instrument, but the Suzuki method has been celebrated for years and this book clearly demonstrates why. Beautiful music, curated and compiled to facilitate learning and musical development. Get a teacher, find some musical friends, and get this book series.
