Fedor Violin Method-Lessons

Learning to play the violin or viola is an excellent way to discover the excitement and beauty of music. Much has been written about the principles of learning to play the violin or viola as it relates to making the process efficient and also pleasant. I teach my Violin and Viola Method (see Publications) to be suitable even for children of a very young age. In my method, I stress the knowledge of reading music. Instead of just copying music already known by rote, students develop an ability to sight-read and to play-in-groups. This knowledge gives them the opportunity to play chamber and symphonic literature and even to select music for themselves.
