Great practice resources

Ayanna's cello teacher, Avi Friedlander, submitted the following resources to help make your student's practice more effective!

"A great website to link to is www.violinmasterclass.com/index.php. Sassmannshaus has great masterclasses, technique work, and lesson ideas on this webpage that can be used for any string instrument.

"Another great technique helper is the book 300 Basics by Simon Fischer. It is a violin technique book that can also be used for cello. (Richard Aaron made me get this book when I was studying with him.) Fischer was a Dorothy Delay student and he explains her teaching methods in this great technique book. "

SugarStrings is an all-girl, classical music trio comprised of 3 first cousins. Whenever SugarStrings performs, inevitably, we mothers are asked about their training routine, their instruments, choice of music, hours of practice, and more. This blog is our attempt to create a community of parents, teachers, and students who love music and want to improve their skills. My sisters, Laura and Janice, and I (Donna Marie) manage this website. We'll provide tips from master teachers and students alike. Please share your thoughts and tips and ideas for stories.
