A Word from the Author
Dear Friends,
I’m delighted to share with you Arise Violin School and we appreciate your interest in this new violin curriculum for young ages.
With youngsters, violin teaching becomes an adventure for both the child and the teacher. We’ve set aside our seriousness and inhibitions to join the child’s world in a playful exploration of music and the violin. Through imagery, metaphor, and a diverse world of sound, we seek to develop a foundation of aural perception, eye tracking, and physical coordination. There is special opportunity to develop perceptual ability at a young age. Skills unfold while we engage the child’s inherent love of music.
Many thanks for your ongoing musical support! Please keep me posted on your results. Your letters and emails are always welcome.
With all best wishes,
