Welcome to The Singing Viola which is one of the Singing Instrumentalist series of books written for beginners of all instruments.
The book gives a selection of entertaining repertoire and a thorough and complete musical experience from the very beginning.
It is presented in four sections, each designed to introduce a particular aspect of music making, whilst taking on board instrumental skills. We invite teachers to use The Singing Viola as they see fit, mixing and matching sections and songs to give a balanced and enjoyable combination of singing, playing an accompaniment, playing the melody, rhythm work, composition and playing duets.
The book enables pupils, teachers and parents to make a successful start with the chosen instrument.
When the book has been completed, The Singing Violaist will have developed a clear understanding of the function of notation, an ear that can hear tuning and two parts and also be able to enjoy more dissonance as well as pure harmony. The Singing Violaist should be well on the way to becoming a ‘Complete Instrumentalist’, which is, coincidentally, the name of the book that follows this one!
