String Basics, Book 2 (Steps to Success for
String Orchestra)—Terry Shade & Jeremy
Woolstenhulme. String Basics is a comprehensive
method for beginning string classes. Through
technical exercises, world music, classical themes,
and original compositions, students will learn to play
string instruments in an orchestra. Step-by-step
sequences of instruction help students learn to hold
their instruments and bows, find new notes, count
different rhythms, read music notation, and more.
Clear, full-color photographs and fingering chart
diagrams introduce playing positions, bow holds, and
left-hand finger patterns. Duets, rounds, trios, and
orchestra arrangements develop students' ability to
play in an ensemble setting, strengthening ear training
and intonation. The "Interactive Practice Studio" is a
unique downloadable resource containing a wealth
of supporting materials, along with the "Interactive
Teacher's Studio" for directors.

sequences of instruction preparing students for grade
3 performance literature and beyond. Book 3 opens
with independent instrument tuning and then a critical

the chromatic scale, and advanced note values and
rhythm combinations. All are reinforced with technical
exercises and a wide sampling of classical and cultural
music. Book 3 concludes with vibrato development
exercises, specially designed for heterogeneous

String Training (Book One)—Kathryn Griesinger.
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

Vibrato Basics—Jeremy Woolstenhulme.
Vibrato Basics is the newest member of the String
Basics curriculum! Especially written for string
classrooms, students of all instruments will learn step-

excerpts from folk songs and orchestral literature.

videos featuring essential exercises introduced
throughout the book. Vibrato Basics is an ideal
companion with String Basics Book 3 or any traditional
