Answer 1

This question is much too vague. You don't give the level of the musicians, amount of time available to prepare, type of music, etc, etc.

Hhere are a couple of suggestions.

1. The Beethoven Violin Sonatas (No. 5 the Spring.)- Piano and violin are equal partners. Pretty advanced stuff however.

2. Meditation from Thais- everyone knows the piece. Mostly violin, but piano provides underlying accompaniment.

3. Beethoven Romance in F- very pretty, easier than the violin sonatas.

4. Zigeunerweisen, carmen Fantastie, =Both very showly, flashy fun pieces. Highly technical.

There's juts too many. Practically everything can be played with violin and piano.

Answer 2

I am playing at a soloist festival soon, and I been working on this incredible song. As long as you playing violin for 2-3 yrs, you shold be fine with it. Its called "Concertina In the Style of W. A. Mozart" and its by Hans Millies. It might be difficult to find, but it has piano and violin parts, and is definetly worthwhile.

Special things to learn are:

Trills
Vibrato- not completely necessary, but sounds nice
Arpeggios

The great thing is its all in the first position!!

Answer 3

All the Suzuki books have pieces for which you can purchase the piano accompaniment. This way you can select the piece that reflects your current level of skill. Level 1 are the easiest and each book goes to a higher level of skill.

Answer 4

You might want to look at the Barbara Barber books; the second book cooresponds with the Suzuki books 4-5:
