Description

Fiddle Time is an exciting series for young violinists. The books are carefully paced and organized to build confidence, and include lots of lively original tunes, and entertaining illustrations.

Fiddle Time Scales is filled with creative ideas to make learning scales and arpeggios easy and fun. There are two full pages for each scale and arpeggio including a fingering chart, a rhythm game, fun pieces for each key, and a range of puzzles and composition games.

Reviews

  • ''A well-designed and not too formidable-looking scale book.' -Music Teacher April 99
  • ''Fiddle Time Scales has a most attractive approach.' -SMA Bulletin Spring 99
  • ''Fiddle Time Scales is an excellent technical companion book to the Joggers and Runners and is presented in an attractive and palatable way. Each scale is dealt with very clearly with charts and games to help the memory and understanding of the pupil. As soon as the scale and arpeggio have been thoroughly experienced with questions to answer, boxes to fill in and different rhythms to try, there are also some imaginative pieces to play in that key. ... Even the last page is full of enthusiastic suggestions such as playing Twinkle, twinkle or London's burning in every major key in the book or playing scales and arpeggios as rounds. This is really a puzzle book or workbook which is packed with good things to do.' -ESTA Mag Jan 99
  • Authors Kathy and David Blackwell lay out easy-to-follow and fun exercises. The books are filled with colorful illustrations and most of the musical exercises include whimsical lyrics and fun tips. Strings (US) Oct 03
