Beginner String Ensemble Series: Book 1 - Cello Book by Loreta Fin

A sequential string class or individual learning method

This method has been trialled with students aged between 7 and 9, over many years. Depending on the frequency and duration of lessons, timelines may vary, but essentially, students can play tunes quickly and experience success early on. Book 1 is taught mostly aurally: no staff-reading. Singing is the key - letter names, showing fingers, clapping rhythms and time-names. All pieces use basic chords, so making up accompaniments on piano or guitar is simple. A keyboard or digital Òdrum beatÓ can be used, freeing the teacher to get around the class. It also means NO MUSIC STANDS and LESS CHAIRS, as upper strings stand while playing, and sit on the floor to sing. The teacher can Òthink outside the boxÓ adding other material. Mixed classes are free of clef issues in this crucial Òsetting upÓ phase, as the letters are the same for all instruments! Suggested time frame is included.
