Exeter Young Strings Map for Cellobabies and Violinbabies workshop

A workshop for string teachers and parents of younger children
with
Kay Tucker

Sponsored by Youth Music as part of the Beacon Heath/Whipton music project

With “Cellobabies” and “Violinbabies” children aged 3 - 6 start violin and cello.

“Kay has had such success with this method of teaching children that I can wholeheartedly recommend teachers, parents and pupils alike to use this book and together enjoy the journey of discovery and see how the reading of music opens up so many musical delights” Pat Legg

A comment from Sara, a violin teacher using the method:-
“Violinbabies is a great way for young children to start on the violin. It addresses the issues of note-reading, rhythm and technique in a fun and engaging manner. Instead of boring technical exercises, there are lots of games to play and fun songs to learn, which instil all the right approaches to violin playing.

In addition, the pupils learn to compose their own ideas, right from the start and therefore they quickly become confident in expressing their own creativity. Violinbabies ensures that pupils read music with ease, rhythms are no longer panicked and that they are aurally secure.

What a great start! “
