Summary of This Method

Designed for viola students, this English method is based on the spirit of the Suzuki pedagogy: developing the ear, consistency of gesture, and sound quality, while strengthening reading skills and instrumental technique. The book format makes it practical to use both in lessons and at home, with content designed to support steady progress.

You will find a musical journey focused on excerpts and themes from the great repertoire, selected for their pedagogical value as well as for the joy of playing. Among the pieces offered are: "Chorus from Judas Maccabaeus" (G.F. Handel), the "Musette / Gavotte II" or "Musette" from English Suite No. 2 BWV 808 (J.S. Bach), the "Hunters' Chorus" from Der Freischutz (C.M. von Weber), "Long, Long Ago" with variation (T.H. Bayly), Waltz op. 39 No. 15 (J. Brahms), a Bourrée from a sonata (G.F. Handel), "The Two Grenadiers" (R. Schumann), a theme from "Witches' Dance" (N. Paganini), as well as gavottes (A. Thomas, J.B. Lully) and minuets (L. van Beethoven, L. Boccherini).

The whole forms a solid foundation for working on interpretation (articulations, dynamics, style) while building reliable basics. Doris Preucil's "Practice Suggestions" provide a clear framework: session organization, technical goals, and methods to gain precision and stability, particularly useful for establishing good habits from the earliest stages.
