Product Information:
The concept of modulation is
presented in an entertaining way in The Note People Story, Chapter 15. The
Circle of Fifths is introduced, notes visit their "neighbours"
next door and return home again. Fast finger exercises promote left hand
agility. Double stops and vibrato are continued. Further "Musical
Math" exercises encourage good bow direction in the upper half and
lower half. Bow exercises for beginning well, finger flexibility, string
levels and clear tone are emphasized. Bow strokes include mixed bowings,
slurs and staccato. The interval of a 5th is studied and leads to
recognizing major and minor thirds and triads. Book 4C includes 9 duets
and 9 piano accompaniments, also music by Poldini, Leopold Mozart,
Schumann, W.A. Mozart, Bartók, J.S. Bach, Haydn, Purcell, C.P.E. Bach,
Clementi, Handel, Rossini, Gilbert & Sullivan, Brahms, Dvorak and
Telemann.
