Givens, Shirley - Adventures in Violinland, Book 3F: "The Kingdom of Stringdom" - Arioso Press Publication
Book 3F, The Kingdom of Stringdom: The primary purpose of this book is to teach the alphabet names of the notes and to promote fluent sight reading (not just of the notes, but of accurate rhythm, and an awareness of dynamics, articulation markings, etc.). The object of the Kingdom of Stardom game is to reach King String's castle. To do this, the student must complete his travel through each of the 4 "Stringdoms" of G, D, A & E on the Map by following the Clue Messages he receives from his teacher. Princess Treble Clef acts as the guide to the young violinist. At the end the student receives a Proclamation by King String, as well as a Certificate of Promotion to the Green Books (4th Year).
"Young children love the violin! It is small and huggable – and it makes sounds! How to nurture this initial enthusiasm for the instrument and to transform it into a deeper love of music is the object of my books."
"Don't be misled by the seeming simplicity of the material! The books are written from a child's point of view while incorporating the most exacting standards of modern violin technique. But there are other important features of the books that contribute to their uniqueness:
*The young student is encouraged to participate actively in his own learning by developing his own imagination.
*There is discovery and improvisation. No imitation or copying from CDs.
*Training the child's own pitch awareness from the start assures early in-tune playing.
*Note reading and harmonic awareness from the beginning cultivate musical literacy for a lifetime.
*A wonderful rhythmic foundation is established through body movement"
