Be a creative player
The violin is the most perfect instrument for all thinkable music styles, apart from classical music it has claimed it's place in jazz, pop, rock, country, world music...
Until now there has been no violin method that went beyond classical music.
Creative Violin brings this to a change.
Apart from classical music the student will taste many different styles of music and even learn to improvise, right from the start.
I see that this works very well, even the youngest beginners (6 years old!) learn how to close the book and start playing intuitive, along with the provided studio recorded accompaniments, right from the first lessons.
Creative Violin is a new method which even includes improvisation training right from the start.
What can you expect in this first course?
This course is the follow up on lessons 1 and 2 (basics)
Here we will learn combining quarter notes with eighth notes, ties (playing 2 or more notes on the same bow direction),
3rd finger, improvisation...
Included music in the full course are classical pieces (Bach, Mozart, Dvorak, Bartok...) as well as the jazz/swing (lesson 8), musical, and world music from countries like Ireland and Romania...
All lessons and exercises are accompanied with studio recorded backing tracks, so you'll never have to play alone.
This is the follow-up of the course: "Creative Violin, The New Violin Method 1: Basics, Lesson 1-2": Lesson 3, 4 and 5.
Master combination half notes and quarter notes, and cover "ties", playing 2 or more notes on one bow.
String changes and the time signature: 3/4. With that the combination of all techniques learned so far with fingers 1 and 2.

Geweldig !!! Ik ben nog nooit zo enthousiast geweest over het spelen van viool. Het is echt leuk, ik hoef niet in een orkest te gaan spelen, gewoon genieten van het zelf bezig zijn met muziek !!! Het was van mijn jeugd geleden dat ik nog zoveel muziek heb gedaan, en het komt allemaal terug !!! een oude liefde teruggevonden maar wel op een ontspannen manier !!! Dank je wel !!!

I love this course starting with Creative Violin, lessons 1-3 , as well as this course 3-5, as I am at the end of lesson 3 and loving my violin education experience. that I am hoping my brilliant professor Xander, continues offering more lessons past this course, creative violin 3-5. If so I would love to know ASAP. Thanks so far for this brilliant and inspiring musical education.
