This is from Volume 3 of Yamaha’s Adult Music Lessons “Violin Course.” It would be fun to play with such a pop-style accompaniment and arrangement.
The pieces are Blue Tango, Plink Plank Plunk, and The Syncopated Clock, with the second arranged for pizzicato.
Classical music is wonderful, but many beginner violinists probably want to try practicing pop-style violin pieces.
Even if not these specific pieces, many pop-style scores are included in the sheet music collections.
Use this video as a reference to find the videos and sheet music that suit you best, and try practicing a variety of pieces!
The Waltzing CatLeroy Anderson16rank/position

Composer Leroy Anderson, famed for his humor-filled orchestral works, enjoyed great popularity.
Among his pieces, this is the one cat lovers should definitely hear.
Recorded in September 1950 under Anderson’s own baton, the work uses the silky timbre of the strings to imitate a cat’s meow.
You can almost picture Puss in Boots gracefully stepping through a ballroom.
The charming finale even features a comic twist, with the cat chased off by a barking dog.
Brimming with playfulness, it’s a perfect recommendation for anyone seeking classical music that’s simply fun to enjoy.
