The Essential String Method | Violin | Book 4

Sheila Nelson's award-winning teaching approach available in a clearly structured progressive method covering Preliminary to Grade 3. The Essential String Method integrates musical awareness, creativity and technical development from the outset, developing the student as a musician as well as an instrumentalist right from the start through an integrated programme of games, activities, songs and pieces.

Making their way through the series, students encounter an attractive selection of new tunes and arrangements on which to build their repertoire. The material is presented as a logical progression of musical activities involving both the instrument and the voice. These make learning fun and are easily incorporated into instrumental lessons, simultaneously developing the pupil's technical and musical abilities.
