Tasmin Little’s latest album of solo violin music entitled The Naked Violin, has been made available as a free download. In addition to music there are also suggestions for classroom activities, information on each piece and an overview explaining what’s on offer. Take a look at the “Three Step Challenge” at the bottom of the webpage:

• Step 1 Listen to my spoken introduction and download my CD.
• Step 2 Take some time to listen and get to know these pieces. Then write to me and tell me what you like (or don’t like) about each piece.
• Step 3 Go to a concert, buy a CD or write and tell me what barriers still remain to prevent you from wanting to do either!

Good things always come in threes and there are three works on the album:
1. J. S. Bach’s Partita No. 3 in E BWV 1006
2. Paul Patterson’s Luslawice Variations
3. Eugène Ysaÿe’s Sonata No 3 in Dm “Ballade”

For those intending to burn the content onto a CD, there is also a downloadable cover (artwork, titles, composers’ dates etc.)
