AlfredI Can Read Music for Violin, Volume 2 Book
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Volume 2 of Alfred's note-reading workbook for violin. For a student who has finished Volume 1 and is moving past first-position basics.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Violin students continuing straight on from I Can Read Music Volume 1
- Teachers wanting a reading supplement alongside a method book
- Adult beginners drilling note recognition between lessons
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Absolute beginners who have not worked through Volume 1
- Cello, viola or bass players — this edition is violin-specific
- Players wanting repertoire; this is reading drill, not performance pieces

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I need Volume 1 first?
Yes, in practice. Volume 2 picks up where Volume 1 leaves off and assumes that reading ground is already covered.
02Does it come with a CD?
No. This is the book on its own, with no audio disc included.
03Will this work for viola or cello?
No. This is the violin edition. Alfred publishes separate editions for other string instruments.
04Is this a full method book?
No. It is a note-reading workbook meant to run alongside a method book or lessons, not replace one.
