Abstract

This article will discuss the creation of a repertoire book for beginner-to-intermediate level violin that uses Malaysian folksongs. The book comes with an accompanying compact disc (CD). The article will also present the findings of a research project that trialed the book to ascertain the effectiveness of the book, testing whether the use of folksongs assisted in student learning, exploring the Kodály tenant that traditional folksongs are the ‘native tongue’ of the beginner student, thus assisting the student to more readily relate to it, and learn more naturally.
