Edición de la obra String Basics

Welcome to String Basics Book 3. We are proud that you have entered a new and exciting year in your orchestra program. You will find that Book 3 has many similarities to String Basics Books 1 and 2 because it includes a strong mixture of technical studies (left hand and bow arm), as well as a nice selection of classical tunes and melodies representing different cultures from around the world. A variety of duets, chorales, and orchestra arrangements are included to round out the book. Music theory and composition exercises are featured to help you become a well-rounded musician. As you continue on your journey to becoming a more advanced player, Book 3 will help you broaden your knowledge of your instrument in many ways; tuning your own instrument, shifting, learning advanced time signatures and key signatures, playing more difficult rhythms, harmonics, trills, and grace notes. You will also begin the initial steps toward learning vibrato! If you have been practicing with a metronome up to this point, congratulations! Continue working with your metronome throughout Book 3 as it will be beneficial. If you are new to working with a metronome, now is the perfect time to include it into your daily practice routine. Using a metronome is one of many steps to take toward becoming a strong and successful musician. - Title page.
