Cell Phone Symphony For Four Violins

Cell Phone Symphony For Four Violins

NEW!

Cell Phone Symphony For Four Violins

I hope you will enjoy the rich, classical style and form I have brought into our modern day culture! Cell Phone Symphony is my first original piece of music and has three movements, lasting approximately five minutes in its entirety.

The names of the movements are: #1 — Wonderful, Wireless Waves, #2 — Electronic Friends ’til the End and #3 — “Texting, Anyone?” Lyrics to all three movements are available upon request; just text me at 678.612.5555. :-)

Melodies are upbeat and harmonies are contemporary (added 6th’s, tone clusters). Players must be technically secure in both left-hand and bowing versatility. The level of difficulty is perhaps Suzuki Book 6 level or students playing the Handel Sonatas or the Accolay or Bach A Minor Concerti. Great recital showstopper for advanced students or professionals!

American Melodies For Four Violins

Advanced Melodies For Four...

NEW!

American Melodies For Four Violins

American Melodies For Four Violins is a charming medley arrangement that contains three well-known American tunes — O, Susannah, She’ll Be Comin’ ‘Round the Mountain and Old MacDonald. The length of this arrangement is approximately four minutes in its entirety.

Harmonies are contemporary-sounding (added 6th’s, tone clusters), with styles ranging from lyrical to brilliantly virtuosic. Players must be technically secure as positions are quite high at times, with frequent style and tempo changes abounding. The level of difficulty is for students playing perhaps Suzuki Book 7 or the Bach A Minor Concerto, studying etudes and scales. Great recital showstopper for advanced students or professionals!

Christmas Melodies For Violin Series, Bound Physical Books

Christmas Melodies For Violin Series, Bound Physical Books

I am pleased to offer three distinct types of Christmas Melodies books for the violin:

(1) DUETS CUBEDDuets to the 3rd Power has three levels of difficulty for the second violinist: easy, medium and hard. The second book, containing identical notes and called the Tradeoff version for short, is for more advanced players and trades off the melody and harmony parts.

.
(2) DOUBLE STOP SOLOS and DUETS — There are two levels of difficulty for this Series. In each volume, a student plays a duet first with their teacher and then goes immediately to the double stop solo containing identical notes from the duet. Volume I is for students who have never played double stops while Volume II is quite advanced.

.
(3) FOUR VIOLINS — There are two verses for each Christmas Carol, a contemporary sounding harmony followed by a classical harmony, which provides a nice contrast and sufficient length for various Christmas music programs. The level of difficulty is intermediate.

Martha’s New Teaching And Practice Products: Duets For One For Violin?

Martha's New Teaching And Practice Product: Duets For One For Violin?
When completed in the not too distant future, Duets For One For Violin? will be my very first teaching practice multi-media product geared for violin teachers and their students. Under the “right” set of circumstances, for example, based, in part, on the skill set and personality or temperament of the student, I believe this product will greatly improve the studio and practice experience for both teacher and student.

The genesis for Duets For One For Violin? is based on my article, Solos For Two?…Duets For One?…A Radically Simple New Teaching Practice Method.

To find out more about what my new teaching and practice product is all about, what it can possibility do to help you and your students and when it is expected to be released, please visit www.DuetsForOneForViolin.com.

Christmas Melodies For Violin: Duets[to the 3rd power]…3 Verses of FUN!

Christmas Melodies For Violin: Duets[to the 3rd power]...3 Verses of FUN!, Without Tradeoffs, Bound Physical Books

My Duets3 version of Christmas Melodies is an excellent resource for planning studio Christmas programs, playing at holiday parties, or simply gaining sight-reading experience while playing fun and familiar music. The meaning of “cubed” is that there are three different levels of difficulty for the second violinist — easy, medium and hard.

But what really makes my Duets3 Volume unique is that the first violin part is very simple and remains the same in verses 1 and 2, going up an octave on the 3rd verse. This feature, combined with the three different gradings for the second violinist yields two very important implications about this Volume.

First, ALL levels of students are appropriately challenged, from the beginner to the most advanced. And second, related to this first point, you can get a tremendous amount of mileage from this material. In particular, if you start your beginner students with this Volume, you can continue using it in a challenging manner for many years to come, without them becoming bored!

This will become most evident when you view the Sample PDFs or listen to the Sample MP3s below.

CM For Violin: Duets Cubed…3 Verses of FUN!, Melody-Harmony Advanced Tradeoffs

Christmas Melodies For Violin: Duets[to the 3rd power]...3 Verses of FUN!, With Tradeoffs, Bound Physical Books

In this Advanced Volume, all the notes are the same as in my easier Duets3 Volume.” However, in this version, the melodies and harmonies tradeoff. In particular, both players need to be strong readers with advanced shifting and string crossing skills in order to make smooth transitions between the melody and harmony, when playing these Christmas Carols.

The tradeoff spots don’t happen that often within a verse in order to maintain a natural musical flow. This Volume is great for two “hot-shot” players, whether they are gigging or just plain having fun together!

Christmas Melodies: Double Stop Solos and Duets For Violin, Volume I (with CD), BPBs

Christmas Melodies: Double Stop Solos and Duets For Violin, Volume I (with CD), Bound Physical Books
Christmas Melodies: Double Stop Solos and Duets For Violin, Volume I (with CD), Bound Physical Books, is an excellent way to introduce violin students to the magical world of double stops! (Please read the Foreword by William Starr by clicking the Forewords Button located here or at the top of the navigation bar on the Home Page.)

The student plays a duet with their teacher, a Christmas Carol of their choice. After playing the duet, the student goes immediately to the double stop solo, where the same, identical notes written in the duet are rewritten for one player. For a more detailed analysis of my approach to teaching double stop solos, please refer to my recently revised article.


This
Volume is written for students in late book three to early book four of Suzuki or for traditional students studying perhaps Bach Bourrees, Gavottes or Seitz Telemann concerti. In other words, it is geared for students with very little or no experience playing double stops. There are lots of octaves with open strings, thirds without 4th fingers and both major and minor sixths. As such, it is an ideal starting place to begin the journey into the wonderful world of double stops!

Christmas Melodies: Double Stop Solos and Duets For Violin, Volume II

Christmas Melodies: Double Stop Solos and Duets For Violin, Volume II


Volume II
of Christmas Melodies: Double Stop Solos and Duets For Violin is quite a bit more challenging than Volume I. The double stops involve the use of the 4th finger and occasional triple stops. Students should be in at least late Suzuki book five, early book six or have studied some Handel Sonatas, the Accolay Concerto, La Folia, etc.


Like Volume I, arrangements of Christmas Carols appear first as duets, with the exact same notes then rewritten for one player as a double stop solo. By playing the duet first, students get an exact duplication of what the double stops should sound like. This is a very challenging Volume (I have to practice these every Christmas!), but it’s a fun way to improve your technical skills on the violin!

Christmas Melodies For Four Violins, Volume I: Contemporary and Classical Arrangements

Christmas Melodies For Four Violins: Contemporary and Classical Arrangements, Bound Physical Books

The level of difficulty for Volume I is intermediate (minimum Seitz, Kuchler, Reiding, Vivaldi concerti). The unique feature about these arrangements is the contrast between the contemporary (1st verse) and classical (2nd verse) styles. There is a lot of busy passagework in the faster carols and lots of moving inner voices in the slower carols.

The melody is traded off between all four violin parts. There are a total of 8 carols in this Volume, with five separate bound booklets, including the four violin parts (8 pages each part) and a score (19 pages).

The unique feature about these arrangements is the contrast between the contemporary (1st verse) and classical (2nd verse) styles.
