Note Reading School for Violinists, Vol. 1
Step by step, students will be introduced to notes on all four strings, basic rhythms, and time signatures. This book contains opportunities for chanting rhythms, singing, playing the notations on the violin and gradually working towards using these skills in a musical context with charming, beloved melodies. This resource is filled with rewards such as rhythm canons, violin duets, select piano accompaniments, worksheets, and much more.

These materials are aimed at students who learned to play violin by ear and are ready to aquire basic music reading skills. The book is divided into 22 steps.

Activities in each step
In each step, fundamentals of musical notation are presented along with practice suggestions.
- Rhythm Exercises
- Pitch Exercises
- Duet or Canon

Playing the duets and canons together, solo or in a group, is the highlight of each chapter and increases the motivation to learn to read music. It also opens up the opportunity to learn new pieces and to teach early chamber music and ensemble skills.

Piano accompaniments composed and performed by David Andruss are included for selected duets for an even richer experience.

Online access included to the audio files (MP3) and to the sheet music for the piano accompaniment (PDF).

Superb curriculum for beginners

This book offers a comprehensive curriculum that is easy to understand for the young violinist. Each chapter develops important literacy concepts of pitch, bowing & rhythm as isolated studies, then culminates with combining them together for an enjoyable piece that is rewarded with a pleasant 2nd violin accompaniment for the teacher (or parent or older sibling) to play with the student.
