Kaleidoscopes Book 2 Workshop: Expressive Foundations
Overview
As students begin Book 2, they have the fundamental skills of violin playing and are ready for deeper musical experience.
The rich emotional palette of Book 2 allows the teacher a diverse landscape for teaching dynamics, whole body movement, and vibrato. These skills will add grace and balance to the student’s Bach and Vivaldi, and will blossom into a passionate performance of Bruch in a few years’ time.
Elise Winters will work intensively with teachers in a small-group setting to explore body balance and efficient movement and expression.
July 22-August 2, 2024
Monday-Friday 11–2:00 CDT
Early bird pricing through May 15
