Supplement—Jeremy Woolstenhulme.
A supplementary method designed to guide students
and orchestras towards development of superb
intonation. Author Jeremy Woolstenhulme shares
a wealth of tips throughout the Teacher's Edition,
starting with establishing good posture, selecting
solid open string tuning procedures, working on
vertical format tuning with drone pitches, learning
to blend as an ensemble, and more. The book
supports Woolstenhulme's pedagogy with a wealth of
technical exercises and classical melodies specially
prepared as rounds, duets, trios, quartets, and
orchestra arrangements. Also included is access to
20 instructional videos demonstrating technique and
ways to achieve good intonation. Although primarily
designed for second year players and beyond, there
are concepts and exercises that are quite appropriate
for 1st year orchestras in their second semester.
