발리언트 바이올린: 초보 바이올리니스트를 위한 여름 캠프!

This is a 6 week class designed to teach beginning students how to play the violin. Students will learn the parts of the violin, how to properly hold the instrument, the appropriate methods for producing sounds/pitches, notes/fingerings, and how to play beginning level songs. This will be a very squeaky adventure!

Students are expected to have a sized violin on their very first lesson day. 

Students will be taught using resources from the Essential Elements for Strings Violin Book 1 and Suzuki Violin Book 1. This will help students with individual practice and learning notation and violin fingerings. Students will focus mostly on foundational technique and learning a few beginning songs.
