STEP

We are offering a new exciting class this year. All violinists from late book 1 through book 4 will be eligible for music reading classes. These classes will replace the theory classes and focus on reading music for your instrument. For beginner readers, we will focus on learning to read music. For intermediate students, sight-reading will be given to enhance their skills. Violists and cellists will be receiving reading instruction during their regular group class time.

While the Suzuki method focuses on learning by ear to begin your instrument, the ability to read music is of utmost importance to string players as they move on in their careers to orchestras, chamber music or just a favourite song they find in a book! The combination of strong ear and note-reading abilities is an unbeatable combination! Reading music is a skill honed over many years, so start early! At $2.77 per class this is a bargain that your child will always thank you for!

Next year this class will be compulsory for everyone. We highly recommend that EVERYONE take it this year so that no one is left behind! We’ll all be on the same page!
