Things to consider
Start with Book 1 in the student's primary instrument to establish fundamentals, then coordinate across violin, viola, cello, and bass parts so your ensemble reads together from the same method. The series spans beginner through early intermediate, so assess your group's current reading level before purchasing Books 2 and 3. If you're building a full orchestra, acquire the complete set of parts for each book level rather than mixing titles, since the method progresses systematically across all four volumes.
