Now you can make music in a unique way by playing the first violin part in a real string quartet - on your own! You can play these eleven classics by famous composers like a real soloist but still within the intimate atmosphere of a string quartet. Another dimension will be added to your playing when you use the CD to play along with these pieces as your solo playing and the CD will form a complete string quartet.
