Techniques teachers love

While children are playing music they love, teachers can rest assured children are building solid technique. From how to stand, to how to hold the bow, to how to place fingers, each song has been paired with a foundational technique of viola playing, ensuring that every technique has ample time to solidify.

Aural based learning

Just as children learn to speak before they learn to read, so young violists can learn to play viola before they learn to read music.  By first separating rhythm and pitch, left hand and right hand, and then combining them later, Wee Viola makes learning by ear effortless for young children.  The digital recording provided gives students the opportunity to listen to and freely imitate what they hear on the instrument.

Graded Repertoire

Wee Viola provides a selection of music for every technique a child needs to learn from their first lesson to level 1 repertoire. No other book provides such a breadth and depth of music for this level 0, or foundational phase of learning.

Technical Drawings

Wee Viola contains over 30 hand drawn illustrations of children’s hands and bodies producing early techniques and exercises. Because adult hands are anatomically different from children’s hands, Wee Violin uses children’s hands as model and outlines them in simple, easy to understand drawings.

Twinkle Preparation

At the conclusion of this book of study, children can effortlessly play Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, the first song in many level 1 collections.  This allows students to enter level 1 books with a solid foundation and an entire collection repertoire already learned.
