"Wee Violin should be a staple in every Suzuki Studio"
-Marilyn O'Boyle, SAA Teacher Trainer, author of Monkey Song
Music Kids Love
From the stone passing song of Ghana, to the hand clapping song of Mexico, Wee Violin is music that children all around the world love. With rich harmonies, melodies and a variety of tonalities and meters, families will find it effortless to listen, sing and dance to the music with their child.
Techniques Teachers Love
While children are playing music they love, teachers can rest assured children are building solid technique. From how to stand, to how to hold the bow, to how to place fingers, each song has been paired with a foundational technique of violin playing, ensuring that every technique has ample time to solidify.
Aural Based
Wee Violin is grounded in the belief that children can participate in music-making before mastering musical notation. We employ an aural-based learning approach. Expert sequencing combined with high quality audio recordings makes learning by ear effortless, removing the necessity of reading music notation at the beginning stage.
Child Centered
Rooted in research-based practices for early childhood, Wee Violin prioritizes imagination, exploration, and the highest quality music. Through our play-based repertoire and developmentally appropriate technical drawings, we ensure a joyful and engaging musical journey that nurtures young children to thrive.
"I am LOVING teaching my beginner students with Wee Violin! Crystal is a master teacher to put this together in a simple, easy to follow book! With such fun pieces! So much solid foundation technique, it's absolutely brilliant. It has made such a difference in my teaching."
Anne Elkins, Suzuki Violin Teacher, Morgan,UT, USA
