Suzuki Cello School, Volume 7

sku Product SKU:  0360S

 

Teach cello with the popular Suzuki Cello School. The Suzuki Method® of Talent Education is based on Shinichi Suzuki's view that every child is born with ability, and that people are the product of their environment. According to Shinichi Suzuki, a world-renowned violinist and teacher, the greatest joy an adult can know comes from developing a child's potential so he/she can express all that is harmonious and best in human beings. Students are taught using the "mother-tongue" approach. Each series of books for a particular instrument in the Suzuki Method is considered a Suzuki music school, such as the Suzuki Cello School. Suzuki lessons are generally given in a private studio setting with additional group lessons. The student listens to the recordings and works with their Suzuki cello teacher to develop their potential as a musician and as a person. This Suzuki book is integral for Suzuki cello lessons.

Titles: Largo and Allegro from the Sonata in G Minor (Eccles) * Bourrées from Suite in C Major, BWV 1009 (Bach) * Gavotte, Op. 23, No. 2 (Popper) * Sicilienne (von Paradis). The Suzuki Method is based on the principle that all children possess ability and that this ability can be developed and enhanced through a nurturing environment. All children learn to speak their own language with relative ease and if the same natural learning process is applied in teaching other skills, these can be acquired as successfully. Suzuki referred to the process as the Mother Tongue Method and to the whole system of pedagogy as Talent Education. The important elements of the Suzuki approach to instrumental teaching include the following:an early start (aged 3-4 is normal in most countries); the importance of listening to music; learning to play before learning to read; -the involvement of the parent; a nurturing and positive learning environment; a high standard of teaching by trained teachers; the importance of producing a good sound in a balanced and natural way; core repertoire, used by Suzuki students across the world; social interaction with other children. Suzuki students from all over the world can communicate through the language of music.

Suzuki Ensembles for Cello, Volume 2

sku Product SKU:  0298S

 

Prepared and edited by Rick Mooney, a well-known Suzuki teacher, teacher-trainer and member of the Suzuki Cello Committee, these books contain harmony parts to go with many of the pieces in the Suzuki Cello School, Volumes 1, 2, 3, and 4. All of these pieces have been arranged to resemble, as much as possible, the existing piano accompaniments. These ensembles enable a cello teacher (who does not play or have access to a piano) to play harmony parts with students to prepare them for the time when a piano and pianist are available. These parts also provide additional challenges for the more advanced player during a group lesson. Volume 2 contents are: Long, Long Ago (T. H. Bayly) * Maytime Komm Lieber Mai from Sehnsucht nach dem Frühlinge, K. 596 (duet & quartet) (W. A. Mozart) * Minuet No. 1, Minuet II from Suite in G Minor for Klavier, BWV 822 (J. S. Bach) * Minuet No. 3, Minuet in C, BWV Anh. II 114/Anh. III 183 (J. S. Bach) * Chorus from Judas Maccabaeus (G. F. Handel) * Hunters' Chorus from 3rd Act of the opera Der Freischutz (C. M. von Weber) * Musette, Gavotte II for the Musette from English Suite No. 3 in G Minor for Klavier, BWV 808 (J. S. Bach) * March in G (J. S. Bach) * Theme from Witches' Dance (N.
