Learning to Read Music DAY 3

 Learning Music 

In parallel with learning the violin I shall have to learn to read music. To this end I invested a whole £12 in buying a book from Amazon which arrived today

I've finished the first day study, taken the tests and got them right - encouraging.

I made up a Crib-Sheet (I popped the strings of the violin in too)

Online Violin Lessons. The Online Piano & Violin Tutor (Youtube)

I've also hooked up for free Youtube lessons with Allison Sparrow.  It seems a well established set up. It starts with 10 free lessons which need her SONG BOOK 1 (£8 Amazon) with the music

This book is an accompaniment to Alison’s video lessons 1-10 and contains 10

well known classical and original pieces, which have all been specifically written

and arranged to go with those lessons.

These pieces contain all the knowledge cumulated thus far from the video lessons

1-10. There are a few notes here and there that will not have been covered in those

lessons, but they are all explained in the video that accompanies this book.
