To See All Music Minus One Titles Available for Violin Click Here
The Music Minus One concept is Wonderful.  In one package combine the written score of the piece of music with a CD recording of the music.  That would be nice in and of itself, but there's more.  There is also a recording of the piece WITHOUT THE SOLOIST.  Just the Accompaniment!  So you can play right along with the orchestra!  YOU ARE THE SOLOIST!  Many titles are available at all skill levels.  Here is a partial list of available titles.
