Tricks To Tunes - Piano Accompaniment and Teacher's Book 3

Tricks To Tunes Piano Accompaniment and Teacher's Book 3 📚

Turning Beginners Into Musicians 

The Tricks To Tunes Piano Accompaniment/Teacher's Book 3 is an integral part of the Tricks To Tunes series, a comprehensive program designed for teaching mixed string instruments in group settings. Developed over many years of experience in teaching strings in schools, this systematic approach is primarily aimed at primary and lower secondary school-age groups but is also suitable for older beginners.

The series fosters a fun and engaging learning environment where children are introduced to musical concepts and technical skills through a series of progressive "tricks" for their fingers or bows. These tricks make group learning enjoyable and help in the development of essential reading skills from the very beginning of the learning process.

Each page in the series represents a small step in musical and technical development, grounded in the practice of reading music notation. Additionally, theory exercises are included at the end of most sections, providing a comprehensive understanding of music theory as children progress.

While the content of the tutors for each instrument is largely identical, adaptations are made to accommodate the different instruments within the group. Books 1 and 2 of the series are designed to cover one year of group tuition, assuming a school year of 40 weeks. Book 3 extends the material to span two years, allowing for more advanced learning.

The series includes additional repertoire at the end of the books, serving multiple purposes. It provides extension work for pupils who progress more quickly than the rest of the group, additional challenges for those seeking extra practice, and pieces suitable for end-of-year concert performances.

One notable feature of the Accompaniment Books is that they contain piano parts that are simple enough to enable parents or siblings with some musical skills to participate. In many instances, the right-hand piano part can serve as an accompaniment for the violin.

These tutor and accompaniment books are valuable resources for ensemble work, offering arrangements for duets, trios, or quartets. This allows more advanced students to play alongside beginners, promoting a collaborative learning experience. Accompaniment Book Three introduces harmony parts suitable for a range of abilities, spanning from beginners to proficient fourth-year players.

In addition to the instructional content, Books One and Two include over a dozen games that add variety and engagement to the classroom, further enhancing the learning experience. With its comprehensive approach and thoughtful design, the Tricks To Tunes series makes the process of learning music enjoyable and fulfilling, as it should be.
