P5 - B6

Coordination

  • Coordinate the action of both hands rhythmically on the pulse, using a large variety of tempi and bowing patterns
  • Coordinate the action of both hands in position shifts across the full range of the instrument
  • Evaluate and improve their articulation and coordination in response to the stylistic requirements of a broader repertoire

Ask learners to play pieces with a variety of irregular beats, syncopated rhythms and bowing patterns, e.g. jazz styles, contemporary music.

Teach learners to play extended, rapid passages with different bowing techniques, e.g. slurred and separate, playing off the string, in compound time.
