"12 Days of Practice" Challenge
Bring your filled in practice charts to your lesson for a "sweet reward" this week.
Inclement Weather Lessons
The season of the year when we could have cancelled days due to inclement weather is in front of us. I have been thinking of a way to help reduce the # of makeup lessons in circumstances like this. Starting this year, I would like to experiment with video call lessons using Zoom. To facilitate this process, it will be helpful if you make sure that you have zoom installed ahead of time on the device you would use during the lesson time. (I think you can use the link below to start the set up process)
Here is the link to use for lessons this year: https://zoom.us/j/9799595937
Of course, this is given we have power. ☺ The past missed lesson policies will remain in place if you are not able to attend a video lesson during your scheduled time.
A little up front info. My idea is to use the Zoom conference room as a way to join in an already going lesson and leave when your time is up, just like we do in the studio. This will take a little getting used to but I am excited by the possibilities!

Special Listening
Just a reminder that wonderful videos and audio recordings of professional performers can be seen/heard on YouTube. Use this as the Special Listening assignment for each week. This month's famous performer is Julian Rachlin (see notes below).
There are other recordings - enjoy looking around and learning more about this great artist of our time.
Please share these with the kids.
Saint Saëns, Introduction and rondo capriccioso: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2RD_4GmYH4
Piazzolla, (title not given): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMAfoQgtBTc
Vivaldi, Concerto for 4 Violins in B Minor, RV 580: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjMwksjQs5w
Julian Rachlin (born 8 December 1974) is a Lithuanian-born violinist, violist and conductor. He emigrated in 1978 with his musician parents to Austria. In 1983, he entered the Konservatorium Wien and studied violin in the Soviet tradition with Boris Kuschnir, while also receiving private lessons from Pinchas Zukerman. His career as a child prodigy began with his first public concert in 1984.
In 1988, he took the title of Eurovision Young Musician of the Year, which led to his being invited to appear at the Berlin Festival with conductorLorin Maazel and to his becoming the youngest soloist to ever play with the Vienna Philharmonic, under the direction of Riccardo Muti. In 2005, Rachlin made his Carnegie Hall debut when he performed with the New York Philharmonic under Maazel.
Rachlin plays the "ex Liebig" Stradivarius violin (which is loaned to him).

"12 Days of Practice" Challenge
Over the break, plan to participate in our studio-wide practice challenge. I will have a charts to hand out in lesson Dec 9-12. Practicing begins on Friday, December 13!
Successful participants will earn a special holiday practice reward and be recognized at our January group class. This practice challenge can be layered on top of your 100 days of practice plan, if you are currently working on that.
Parents, use this studio challenge as motivation and leverage as we traverse a few weeks of no lessons. Holidays can be oh, too easy to just ignore the violin. Remember: 5 min with joy is all you need to expect! Often that 5 minutes turns in to 15 or 20. And some days, 5 is just right. ☺

Franck Sonata for Violin and Piano: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkMFy7wRX2k
J.S. Bach Partita No. 2 Allemande (BWV 1004): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrcL-9QNbII
R.Schumann/ from: Piano Trio 1 op.63 in d: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWCiLnCqIlQ
Faust was born in Esslingen, near Stuttgart, in 1972. She accompanied her father to his violin lessons when she was five, and while the father's talents were ordinary, teachers noticed that the daughter quickly mastered whatever challenges she was given. A family string quartet (her brother Boris Faust is a noted violist) as well as lessons with Denes Zsigmondy and Christoph Poppen honed her skills.
After winning first prize at the International Leopold Mozart Competition in Augsburg in 1987, Faust moved to Paris for nine years to gain experience in new contexts rather than enrolling in a conservatory. She made her U.S. debut in 1995 with the Utah Symphony and appeared with many of Germany's top orchestras including the Hamburg Philharmonic under the baton of Yehudi Menuhin.
In 1997 Faust released her first album, a set of Bartók violin sonatas recorded with pianist Ewa Kupiec; the album earned a Gramophone magazine award. Most of her albums have been released on the Harmonia Mundi label. In the early 2000s Faust began performing and recording violin sonata repertory with Russian pianist Alexander Melnikov, including their historically informed recording of Mozart violin sonatas. Faust has been on the faculty of Berlin's University of the Arts since 2004.

Parent Education
I have loaded several articles to the Library & Downloads page in your MMS portal with articles and handouts for parents. Find a title that interests you and read it! So glad that several of you are taking advantage of these articles. If you haven't downloaded any of them yet, I highly encourage you to take a moment this month to choose one and read it. There is so much value in motivation for the Suzuki parent. Let these articles give you that value!!
This month I am uploading an article from the SAA website, Joyful Learning byTerry Durbin. Dr. Durbin is the clinician who leads our area workshop each fall. I highly recommend that each of you read his article (whether or attend the workshop or not!). His experiences teaching violin and kids in particular is unique and informative for each of us.
Take the time to download and read this article. If you have time, let me know your reaction, thoughts. etc. Additionally, feel free to look back at the other articles I have posted. We have quite a variety of topics to choose from now!

Special Listening
Just a reminder that wonderful videos and audio recordings of professional performers can be seen/heard on YouTube. Use this as the Special Listening assignment for each week. This month's famous performer is Christian Tetzlaff (see notes below).
There are other recordings - enjoy looking around and learning more about this great artist of our time.
Please share these with the kids.
Mozart, Concerto No. 3 in G major: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukVuaZsJecw
Mendelssohn Violin Concerto, Op. 64, mvt. 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpxl68woWt4
J.S. Bach, Unaccompanied Sonata No. 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmDJKCz_H5k
Born in Hamburg in 1966 and now living in Berlin with his family, there are three things that make this musician unique, aside from his astounding skill on the violin. He interprets the musical manuscript in a literal fashion, perceives music as a language, and views great works as narratives which reflect existential experiences. As obvious as it may sound, he brings an unusual approach in his daily concert routine.
Secondly, Christian Tetzlaff “speaks” through his violin. Like human speech, his playing comprises a wide range of expressive means and is not aimed solely at achieving harmoniousness or virtuosic brilliance.
Above all, however, he interprets the masterpieces of musical history as stories about first-hand experiences.

September tuition
is due at your first lesson of the month. The envelope for tuition is hanging on the cabinet when you enter the studio. Consult your monthly invoice for the exact amount remaining for summer lessons.

2017-2018 Lesson Registration
Thank you to everyone for signing up for lessons in a timely fashion! I never know what to expect each August in regards to scheduling all the requests, however each year it ends up being much easier than I anticipate. A lot of that is due to the details you all submit online. Thank you! You should have received an email with a yearly invoice, its is much busier than I like, but it hopefully gives you most of the information that you are used to seeing at the start of the year. This is just an informational email. You will receive an invoice the first of every month (like this past summer) that will explain the monthly specifics better.
Parent Education
This weekend I am going to begin populating the Library & Downloads page in your MMS portal with articles and handouts for parents. Find a title that interests you and read it! I will also be highlighting one of those articles here each month, beginning in October.
November workshop
Saturday, November 4: Chapel Hill Workshop with Dr. Terry Durbin. Join us for the day (9a-6p) for group, fiddle, improv, movement and MMG classes, parent talks and more! Everyone is highly encouraged to attend this one-day event. It is such a motivational boost for every student that attends. Let me know if you have any questions, or talk with a family who has attended.
Masterclasses are available on Friday and Sunday. A masterclass is like a lesson, only shorter (~20min) and with a "master" teacher who is not your child's "every-week" teacher. The advantage of taking a masterclass is for getting a "second" opinion or other vantage point from which to view your child's musical path. Usually a masterclass teacher will be found saying the something very similar to what the home teacher or parent has been saying, but since it is in a new environment, or simply said a different way, it hits home and makes a difference! I am a huge advocate of masterclass lessons and would love to have this experience with any of you!
The online registration is live! Here is the email from the organizing team:
Dear Suzuki Friends,
Registration is open for this year's Chapel Hill Durham Suzuki workshop. This workshop will serve Suzuki students at the pre-twinkle level through book 10+. We hope you can attend!
