While the primary focus of Advanced Rhythms in Improvisation is on polyrhythms, the book also covers other additional important rhythms that are useful for the improviser. Extensive syncopated rhythmic figures (via the use of rests, dotted notes, and ties), mixed rhythmic figures and partial subdivision are also covered which are beneficial to today's improviser. Advanced Rhythms in Improvisation offers musicians material and concepts that will help them expand their rhythmic vocabulary in improvisation. Additionally, working on this material will help improvisers fine tune their sense of time and give them many more options for rhythms whether they are improvising in 4/4 or 7/4. The use of these rhythms in improvisation as discussed in the book will enable the player to float over the time and to disguise the basic pulse of the time.

FRENCH EDITION.French composer, Alain Weber (b. 1930) writes 60 Theoretical Rhythm Lessons with much experience and expertise. Following graduation from the Paris Conservatoire, Weber spent time in Italy to develop his own musical style. However, he soon returned to the institution as a professor of theory and counterpoint. He is a significant contributor to important teaching materials and 60 Theoretical Rhythm Lessons is no exception. This second volume, which considers in detail binary and ternary rhythms, rests, triplets, unusual time signatures, and tempo changes, is essential to accompany basic theory progression.

This rocking piece for Beginning Strings is based on the interval of a perfect fifth - thus the title! Beginning students can practice easy string crossings utilizing open strings, while the mostly unison rhythms consist of only quarter-and eighth-note durations. The stepwise finger patterns of the melody strengthen note-reading and intonation. With violin 2 doubling viola and cello doubling bass, each section of the orchestra is given the opportunity to play the melody. The provided piano part fills in during rests and can support students in maintaining a steady beat, particularly in pizzicato sections. An optional drum set part completes this upbeat first concert selection.This rocking piece for beginning strings is based on the interval of a perfect fifth - thus the title!

Using just 6 notes, Arco Echo explores G major in first position using only easy quarter- and half-note rhythms. A smooth detaché call-and-response between upper and lower string sections will help young students learn to listen across the ensemble, building confidence in simple three-part harmony with doubled Violin 2/Viola and doubled Cello/Bass. Optional piano is included for additional support, making this a fun first venture into independent counting.Arco Echo is a lighthearted piece for beginning string orchestra. It falls within the range of the first year player. Young musicians can work on basic detaché bowing skills with a nice mix of half and quarter note rhythms, including some rests and minimal dynamic changes. All of the sections get a chance to play parts of the melody with an echo game of call-and-response between upper and lower string sections. The harmonies are very clear and direct, resulting in a solid concert selection that will give the young orchestra a big, confident sound.

The perfect solution for distance learning! Concise lessons and exercises are designed for students to learn and practice on their own • Workbooks give all students equal access to quality instruction • No computer apps, Wi-Fi, or additional programs are needed • Teacher’s edition with hundreds of activities, worksheets, and quizzes will be available this summer—no special apps needed. Music Theory for the Successful String Musician is the music theory and history curriculum string programs have been waiting for. In two carefully crafted books, author Christopher Selby presents a comprehensive and pedagogically sound sequence specifically for orchestral string students and also addresses questions and offers guidance in resolving problems that are unique to the orchestra classroom. This curriculum will help directors teach music theory, music literacy, music history, and creativity—all of those hard-to-reach standards that ultimately help music students become more well-rounded and better performers, creators, and consumers of great music. Students will learn: Tonal literacy. Fingerboard maps and diagrams teach students how all sharp, flat, and natural notes on the staff relate to the spaces on the fingerboard. Sequential lessons introduce students to minor and major seconds and the effects that key signatures and accidentals have on finger patterns. Students also learn about thirds, tetrachords, and key signatures for all major and minor scales. Rhythmic literacy. The rhythm units teach students how to mark their music so they can perform rhythms independently, correctly, and confidently. Students will learn to read and decipher complex dotted, tied, and syncopated rhythms, as well as the longer notes and rests that are common in orchestra music. Historical awareness. Students will learn the evolution of string instruments and how string music has evolved over the past four centuries. They will learn about some of the great composers and musical genres from the Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and Modern eras. Creative activities. Creativity units teach students how to write down their ideas while also encouraging them to break free from written notation and focus on the enjoyment of making their own music with friends. These units give students opportunities to contribute their own ideas to the ever-evolving field of string music. .
