Solid Wood Dulcimers with Hand - Painted Soundboards for Appalachian Music Lovers300 Progressive Sight Reading Exercises for Violin

Title Default Title
Qty:
Volume One is comprised of 300 progressive eight-bar exercises that cover the keys of C Major, F Major, G Major, A Minor, D Minor and E Minor. Time signatures include 4/4 (Common Time), 3/4, 2/4, 6/8, and 2/2 (Cut Time).

While this book is intended to train sight-reading skills, it may also be used by beginners or those new to reading to acquire basic reading skills. It starts at a very basic level and adds a new note, rhythm, or concept every couple of pages and thoroughly reinforces them throughout the rest of the book.

Next, this book's focus is on establishing range and rhythm at a pace that gives each student numerous pieces from which to acquire solid reading skills.

Note names and first-position fingerings are annotated on the first occurrence of each note until all of the natural notes in first-position have been established. Most of these exercises may be played in higher positions - many of them in several positions. If you are learning to read music for the first time, I recommend that you stick with first-position until you are fluent before progressing on to higher positions. Some fundamental pages on scales and rhythms have been included for convenience.

An instruction and preview pdf are available for download at the Robert Anthony Music website. Instructional videos will be linked below the picture of this book on the aforementioned website as they are produced. There is an email link on my site that you may use to offer constructive criticism or to ask questions. While I get a fair amount of questions, as of this writing I have been able to personally respond to every one.

Finally, I have made the staff font slightly larger than standard. While this will largely go unnoticed in the printed version of this book, it should make the electronic versions (Kindle, iBooks, etc.) significantly easier to read.
