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.
