Ten seaside-based pieces for early intermediate violin with piano accompaniment

We are off to the seaside! These descriptive violin pieces with piano accompaniment paint a picture of the sights and sounds of the coast, whether it be beach huts, seagulls, or that sneaky pirate! This collection is a sequel to Beside the River (also published by Goodmusic – GM487); Beside the Seaside is a little easier, at early intermediate level. I hope that the pieces will both provide useful teaching material and also offer much enjoyment to performers and listeners alike.
