String Training
This collection of 80 reproducible theory and technique worksheets can be used in the orchestra classroom or lesson studio. Twenty units provide brief writing and playing excerpts that can be used for assessment or tuning work in class. Each unit is designed to develop fundamental skills in note recognition, finger patterns, key signatures, meter, rhythms, and sight-reading. Every exercise can be written, counted, sung, and played to allow students to focus on one music element at a time. Progressive exercises range from basic quarter notes to sixteenth and dotted rhythms, compound meter, and syncopation in the keys of D, G, C, F, and A major. Student books are compatible (unison) and the Value Pack includes teacher manual and all four student books.
