Tricks To Tunes – Double Bass Book 3

Turning Beginners Into Musicians

The Tricks To Tunes series is a comprehensive and systematic program designed for teaching mixed string instruments within a group setting. This well-structured approach has been developed over many years, drawing from extensive experience in teaching strings in school environments. While primarily aimed at primary and lower secondary school-age students, these tutors are also suitable for older beginners.

At the heart of the series is the concept of teaching students enjoyable “tricks” for their fingers and bows, which are particularly fun when practiced in a group setting. Simultaneously, the series places a strong emphasis on developing reading skills right from the outset, ensuring that students can understand and interpret musical notation.

Each page within the series represents a small yet significant step in the students’ musical and technical development, building on their ability to read music from their very first lessons. Additionally, theory assignments are included at the end of most sections, providing a well-rounded understanding of music theory as students progress.

The content across the series remains consistent for different string instruments, ensuring a unified and cohesive learning experience. Books 1 and 2 are designed to cover one year of group instruction each, aligning with the standard school year of 40 weeks. In contrast, Book 3 extends the material to cover two years of instruction. The pace of progress may naturally vary depending on factors such as the age of the students, group size, and their prior musical experience.

Thisseries offers a valuable collection of additional repertoire towards the end of each book. This includes extension material for students who advance more rapidly, supplementary resources for those seeking extra challenges, and pieces suitable for end-of-year concerts.

The Tricks To Tunes series is a testament to the belief that playing music should be enjoyable, and these brilliant tutors provide the means to bring this belief to life. With 64 pages in Book 3, there is a wealth of material to provide enriching musical experiences for students, making it an ideal resource for those in their 3rd and 4th years of learning.
