Re: NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS! @Anne Could well be, it makes sense. I apply this to my job. I am a surveyor, often dealing with property law matters so process is all important: due diligence and all that!

Re: Bass Clef Reading I forgot to say that I had the following method with beginner flute students. It must be similar for the violin. The hardest problem to begin with is holding the wretched thing - under your chin in…

Re: NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS! @Anne Thanks Anne. I am a process person. It's called teleology in philosophy, which put crudely is akin to engineering, i.e., work out your aim and then plot out how to arrive there!

Re: NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS! I have omitted to include the minor scales - similar, contrary and thirds, and minor arpeggios. The majors and minors at 6 per week mean that the whole series rotates each month.

Re: Sign-Up: Improve your Arpeggios in Two Weeks with Claire Huangci! @martin I like that idea Martin. The entries are full by now but I would rather be able to practise any exercises so that Claire has something to work with, so next time would be great!
