Learning the viola can be a rewarding experience. Here are some tips for beginners to help you get started:

 

Learning the viola can be a rewarding experience. Here are some tips for beginners to help you get started:

1. Schedule Practice for Peak Energy: Plan your practice sessions during the time of day when you feel most energetic. If you’re a morning person, practice then; if your energy peaks in the afternoon, schedule your practice during that window¹.

2. Create a Distraction-Free Practice Area: Keep your practice space clutter-free and free from distractions. Silence your phone, tidy up, and have everything you need at hand. A focused practice environment leads to better results¹.

3. Practice Frequently: Consistency matters more than duration. Opt for shorter, frequent practice sessions rather than longer, infrequent ones. Studies show that practicing more often leads to better overall improvement¹.

4. Warm Up Before Playing: Playing the viola involves repetitive movements that strain specific muscles. Warm up those muscles before practicing to prevent injuries. Even simple finger stretches can help¹.

5. Record Yourself and Listen: Recording your practice sessions allows you to hear areas that need improvement. Put yourself in your audience’s shoes and identify what needs work. Most smartphones have built-in audio recorders, or you can find free apps in app stores¹.

6. Use a Metronome: Timing and rhythm are crucial. A metronome is an excellent tool for practicing both. If you don’t have one, you can use free online metronomes on your desktop or mobile¹.

7. Avoid Constantly Looking at Your Fingers: While it’s natural for beginners to watch their fingers, try to look ahead at your sheet music or focus on an object in the room. Connecting your hearing with finger position leads to better pitch accuracy and a more polished performance¹.

8. Perform Whenever Possible: Performing in front of others counts as practice under pressure. It’s also a great way to build confidence and improve your overall playing skills¹.

Remember, learning any instrument takes time and patience. Enjoy the process, and don’t hesitate to seek guidance from a teacher or experienced violist. Happy playing! 🎻🎶¹²³

Suzuki School, what is it and how can it help you?

 The Suzuki School is a place for budding musicians who want to learn to master their instruments. But it is also a space for fun and connecting with your tutor, Sarnia de la Maré FRSA. You can also ask questions about anything related to your playing because sometimes we us musicians come across the simple and the complicated issues we struggle with.

If you want more help you can book one to one lessons in piano, cello and viola whenever you need them without signing up for a full term.

We also offer jazz and ABRSM courses.

But first, let's find out about the Suzuki method.

The Suzuki Method is a music curriculum and teaching philosophy developed by the Japanese violinist, pedagogue, educator, and humanitarian, Dr. Shinichi Suzuki. Here are the key aspects of this method:

1. Listening and Repetition:

   • The Suzuki method emphasizes the importance of listening to music extensively. Students are encouraged to listen to recordings of the pieces they are learning.
   • Repetition is a fundamental practice. Students play the same piece repeatedly to internalize the music and improve their skills.

2. Parental Involvement:

   • Parents or guardians play an active role in their child’s music education. They attend lessons, take notes, and guide practice sessions at home.
   • Dr. Suzuki believed that a supportive environment at home is crucial for a child’s musical development.

3. Sequential Repertoire:

   • All Suzuki students follow the same sequence and choice of musical materials for their particular instrument.
   • Each Suzuki School instrument has its own repertoire. Beginning with Volume I, the child masters each new composition, moving carefully forward, acquiring new skills with each piece that prepares them for the ones to follow.

4. Positive Reinforcement:

   • The method creates a reinforcing environment for learning music.
   • Encouragement, praise, and positive feedback are essential to motivate students and build their confidence.

5. Every Child Can:

   • Dr. Suzuki’s philosophy is encapsulated in the phrase “Every child can.”
   • He believed that musical ability is not innate but can be nurtured through proper teaching, practice, and exposure to music.

The Suzuki Method has been widely used around the world and has helped many children learn to play instruments, particularly the violin, at a high level. If you’re interested in exploring this approach further, consider connecting with the British Suzuki Music Association, which trains teachers in the Suzuki Method and supports families involved in the Suzuki movement.

C G D A those are the strings of my cello #poem

The order of cello strings

🎵 “Cats Go Down Alleys” 🎵

In the world of cellos,

where music takes flight,

Four strings stand tall,

each with its own might.

Descending in thickness,

they sing their refrain,

A quartet of notes,

a melodious chain.

C is the first, a sturdy foundation,

Gently humming its low vibration.

Next comes G, resonant and deep,

A soulful companion, a secret to keep.

D follows suit, with a brighter tone,

Dancing on harmonies,

it finds its own zone. 

And lastly,

A, like a sunbeam’s kiss,

Ascending to heights,

a celestial bliss.

Tuning pegs twirl,

adjusting the strings,

Crafting a symphony

that soars and sings.

So remember this order,

let it unfurl:

“Cats Go Down Alleys,”

a cello’s sweet swirl. 🎶

Babes in Blood by Sarnia de la Maré FRSA #warpoem #antiwar #poetry

 The Angry Men 

So proud and strong

Upon the Backs of 

Of the Weakened throng

Let Mothers wash

Their babes in blood

As the men will roar

For the chosen good
