About This Piece
D major is the foundational scale for almost every Suzuki book 1 piece. Both D and A appear as open strings, which gives the student frequent reference pitches. Once comfortable, run the arpeggio (D-F#-A-D) to connect the scale to the chords behind every twinkle-variation-style early piece.
