Summary of This Method

The Easy String Music collection by Boosey & Hawkes, composed and directed by Katherine and Hugh Colledge, offers a structured course in four volumes aimed at string players in the discovery or consolidation phase. The goal is simple: to enable students to quickly play musical pieces while developing solid technical reflexes and reliable rhythmic reading.

Through carefully graded pieces, this method emphasizes the progressive acquisition of fundamentals: finger placement, left and right hand coordination, rhythmic regularity, and intonation. The fingerings indications and the design of the sequences facilitate setup while encouraging the student to build true autonomy in practice. For teachers, it is a coherent resource that easily integrates into an annual progression and helps introduce new technical points without disruption.

Listening and ensemble playing are also encouraged thanks to the accompaniment options offered depending on the chosen version. The audio tracks provide a musical model and allow practice with rhythmic and harmonic support, while the piano booklet offers an ideal solution for lessons, auditions, and duo work. A relevant resource for developing musicality from the easy level, while calmly preparing for the next stages of learning.
