Basic Theory and History for Strings - Teacher's Ed

This workbook is a part of the String Basics curriculum, designed to be used alongside any first-year string method book in the beginning string classroom. In the Music Theory section, new concepts are organized to follow typical first-year curriculum and exercises collaborate with string instrument fingerboard diagrams to provide a strong connection of theory to their playing experiences. The Music History section includes the history and development of string instruments and orchestras, as well as biographies of ten orchestral composers. The Teacher's Edition serves as an answer key and contains additional assessments and materials for ear training exercises. Online ear training tools are available. The Theory and History workbooks are designed for students to write in with practice theory assignments and thought-provoking questions in the history portion
