Lines & Spaces Book 1
Overview
UPDATE 7/15/2025: THE ORIGINAL LINES & SPACES BOOK WILL SOON BE REPLACED BY TWO SEPARATE VOLUMES, COMPRISING THE SIGHT-SINGING AND INSTRUMENTAL PORTIONS OF THE ORIGINAL BOOK.
- The original combined version is still available for viola, in limited quantities.
- The instrumental violin version can be purchased separately (see link below).
- The sight-singing version will be released by SEPTEMBER 30, 2025, and will have a different title than the rest of the series.
=============================
Lines & Spaces is the note-reading companion to Kaleidoscopes Book 1. The student begins discovering note relationships and rhythms in a Kodály-based sequence. Once their sight-singing is proficient they move to the second part of the book, which introduces the corresponding patterns on the violin. With daily practice in sight-singing, students are reading notes fluently by the end of their second year of study. The book also includes 3-octave scales, Schradieck, and tonalization.
Lines & Spaces (complete): 84 pages
If the sight-singing portion of the book is not needed (e.g. for middle-school aged students), the instrumental-only portion of the book is also available. This book may be found here.
Lines & Spaces (without sight-singing): 40 pages
