Suzuki Viola School, CD Volume 5 (Performed by William Preucil)

Viola Part from the Suzuki Viola School Volume 2. Transcribed for Viola and Piano by Doris Preucil. The Suzuki philosophy is based upon the idea that children can learn music in the same manner they do their native language through repetitive listening. This simple method of teaching has developed into a worldwide movement with proponents in many countries across many instruments. The first three volumes of The Suzuki Viola School have been directly transcribed from Shinichi Suzuki's Violin method by Doris Preucil and contain many popular Baroque melodies in addition to the necessary exercises and studies. Suitable for bothbeginner adults and young children.

Teach Viola with the popular Suzuki Viola School. The Suzuki Method® of Talent Education is based on Shinichi Suzuki's view that every child is born with ability and that people are the product of their environment. According to Shinichi Suzuki a world-renowned violinist and teacher the greatest joy an adult can know comes from developing a child's potential so he/she can express all that is harmonious and best in human beings. Students are taught using the 'mother-tongue' approach. Each series of books for a particular instrument in the Suzuki Method is considered a Suzuki music school such as the Suzuki Viola School. Suzuki lessons are generally givenin a private studio setting with additional group lessons. The student listens to the recordings and works with their Suzuki Viola teacher to develop their potential as a musician and as a person. This Suzuki Book

Private studio teachers school string programs and Suzuki teachers preparing for recitals will welcome these tasteful piano accompaniments for the violin viola and cello editions of Volume 2 of Brian Wicklund???s American FiddleMethod. Acknowledged as the most widely used fiddle method in the country Wicklund became aware of the increasing demand for a parallel piano accompaniment series and engaged his friend Bob Walser to take on the task of writingit. Collaborating closely with Wicklund Walser was encouraged to adhere to the chord progressions suggested in the original books but given leeway to add interesting variations in rhythm and harmony. The result is a book ofarrangements that welcomes pianists to the jamming circle. Piano playing teachers parents and siblings can now join in the fun and fiddle tunes can be featured in concerts and recitals with the support of an accompanist. Inaddition principals of accompaniment learned by playing these arrangements can be applied to accompanying other tunes the voice or other instruments. The American Fiddle Method itself provides the beginner with the elementsneeded to become a proficient fiddler. Based on many years of teaching experience the author introduces concepts and techniques that yield solid results. This method encourages creativity in the student by including variations ofthe tunes to illustrate how they can serve as a basis for improvisation.
