Sound Innovations: Sound Development
for Intermediate String Orchestra
(Warm-Up Exercises for Tone and
Technique)—Kirk Moss & Bob Phillips.
Sound Development emphasizes playing with a
characteristic beautiful sound. The components of
producing this sound are broken into four levels,
consistent with the revolutionary Sound Innovations
structure: sound tone, sound bowings, sound
shifting, and sound scales, arpeggios, chorales, and
rhythms. The levels can be used in the order that is
best for your students, as individual warm-ups or as
structured units. Your students will learn the proper
use of the bow with the variables of tone, the next
group of bowings needed for intermediate repertoire,
and how to shift and play with vibrato. These
skills are reinforced with comprehensive scales,
arpeggios, sight-reading materials, rhythm exercises,
and warm-up chorales.

String Basics, Book 1 (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 their stringed instruments in an
orchestra. Step-by-step sequences of instruction
will prove invaluable as 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 holding
and bowing, and left-hand finger patterns. Duets,
rounds, trios, and orchestra arrangements develop
students' ability to play in an ensemble setting right
away, strengthening ear training and intonation.
The "Interactive Practice Studio" is a unique
downloadable resource containing a wealth of
supporting materials. Also available to teachers is
the "Interactive Teacher's Studio," with even more
helpful tips and strategies.
