Review from Rehearsals 9/22
We won’t have practice this Friday because there is no school, so our next rehearsal will be on Friday, September 29th. Make sure to practice at home!
Middle School Orchestra
This week, we practiced using the bow and then started learning how to put our fingers on the D string. Here is a video about how to put your fingers on the strings:
Try to practice the music on page 8, and then try to learn Merrily We Roll Along (#31) on page 9.
Elementary Orchestra
We learned how to use the bow! Look at the video below to review the bow grip:
Don’t worry if it doesn’t sound great at first! Screeching and scratching in the beginning is totally normal. The more you practice, the more you will learn how to play the string you want to play. Don’t forget that your instrument likes lots of bow! Don’t push the bow down, but instead move it sideways to get a great sound. We will work on it together at our next rehearsal!
