Viola Solo - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.953751 Composed by Jennie Lou Klim. Instructional. Individual part. 47 pages. Jennie Lou Klim #2856947. Published by Jennie Lou Klim (A0.953751). One Step at a Time is a five-part method of teaching the fundamentals of music on the viola. It is written in a way that is logical, sequential, and easy to understand. The success of this approach is in its simplicity. The writing of this series is the culmination of many years of teaching, and is based on carefully considered pedagogical principles. The specific goal in Book I is to teach note reading on the A and D strings, without the distraction of letter names or fingerings. Fundamental concepts are introduced with simple tunes and exercises on uncluttered pages, with an emphasis on the Two-Three Finger Pattern. I am grateful to my violinist daughter, Amy Harris Jevitt, who guided me when I was challenged to find the most logical pathway through the keys, and gave me her invaluable opinion in regard to pedagogical issues; and to my husband, Paul, for his endless hours of proofreading the multiple revisions as the series evolved. His total support and understanding made it possible to complete One Step at a Time.
