Re: 拉小提琴的家長分享 / 交流請進
Hi YK,
guess you are doing very well, so soon to bk 7! But does it mean that Suzuki book 7 is something like grade 7? how come you still need another two yrs to achieve the goal! But the arrangement of suzuki's book is quite odd.
I'm using the 篠崎 bk 2 now, together with the Wohlfahrt op.45 bk 1. Both are taught at approx 80%. Very soon will deal with the #28 - double stop etude that sounds really difficult. My son is a little bit ahead of my progress but can't play in a satisfactory manner.
I find that load of time to be taken if both of us really want to play hearable while my son doesn't have! You know local education system is how demanding! And he more likes piano in fact. Anyway i don't push in learning (ECA). Just loves to enjoy is good enough
There is no direct link between the Suzuki graded books and the ABRSM examinations. If my memory serves me (and I may be wrong), the allegro part from the Handel's sonata in Suzuki book 6 was a grade 7 exam piece a few years ago, and the Hunters' Chorus in book 2 was part of the grade 3 syllabus. I won't say whether the Suzuki is more easy or difficult than the exams. They are just two different things. The arrangement of the Suzuki materials may look a little strange at first glance. For examples, bk 2 and bk 3 are of about the same level of difficulty, but the jump form bk 3 to bk4 is quite big; Bk5 and bk6 are not much different from each other, and not much difficult than bk 4, but one will have to make another big jump when meeting face to face the Bach's concerto in book 7. If you look at the Suzuki materials more closely, you will see the beauty of the way the materials are arranged - you first learn shifting between 1st and 3rd positions, then the 2nd position, then some double stops, then the 4th and 5th positions, another set of double stops after that, then the 6th and 7th positions ... I love the Suzuki materials and find it more satisfying to play the great pieces in bk4 and up. A very good supplement to the Suzuki books is a book called The Suzuki violinists by William Starr. I consider it a must read for parents who have kids learning the violins and using the Suzuki books (even if the parent is not himself or herself learning). Another excellent must read for all learners is BASICS - 300 exercises and practice routines for the violin by Simon Fischer. It contains lots of useful suggestions. You may also find the master class videos available at www.violinmasterclass.com helpful. I also highly recommend the set of books by Margaret Keith. They are excellent story books about music, good manner, and a few other things. If I were an English teacher, I would have used them as teaching materials with lower primary kids. They are becoming difficult to find and may go out of print at any time. Get them while you can (I got mine from south west strings - go to www.swstrings.com and search Margaret Keith).
The supper is ready, so enough for today.
Regards,
