A Flying Start for Strings - Viola - Book 1

"A Flying Start for Strings Viola Book 1" is designed to provide a supportive and flexible learning experience for young viola beginners. The book's early section is adaptable and allows teachers to accommodate individual learning styles and paces, ensuring each student feels understood, valued, and supported. Different learning areas can be introduced separately and combined when the student is ready, enabling them to learn at their own pace.

A Flying Start for Strings Viola Book 1:

  • Reading rhythms
  • Bowing
  • Using left-hand fingers
  • Pitch notation

Before introducing any pitch notation, it is essential to practice rhythm exercises. Rhythms can be clapped, played, bowed, or plucked using open strings or fingering. When introducing left-hand fingers, it's best to do so in a preferred order, using the rhythms to develop finger skill and strength.

Start playing major scales and arpeggios on an open string to introduce more complex techniques gently. Gradually introduce short, easy tunes to help with reading and playing using all fingers on each string. This fosters a sense of patience and encouragement in young viola beginners. As students progress and master these more complex techniques, they will feel a sense of pride and accomplishment, further motivating them in their learning journey.

The "A Flying Start for Strings" series offers a carefully graded music sequence for teaching beginning string players. The books are suitable for teaching individuals or groups of the same instrument. Many tunes in the series for violin, viola, and cello are in the same key, allowing them to be played together.
