Kendor Music Publishing is excited to announce String Theory, a music fundamentals workbook from experienced string educator, Caryn Wiegand Neidhold. Written for the beginning string musician, this interactive workbook presents exercises on clefs, note-naming, time signatures, and counting in a consumable write-in format. A student- and instrument-focused supplement for the classroom or private lessons, String Theory contains a wealth of information on the fundamentals of string music.
“String Theory sprang from my desire to help all students in beginning orchestra classes and private studios achieve success in music literacy,” says composer, author, and educator Caryn Wiegand Neidhold. “The format emphasizes repetition and recognition to encourage musical fluency and helps students learn new music at an increased rate. ‘Road-tested’ in the classroom for eight years, this book has been successful with all types of learners, especially students who struggle with note-reading.”
In addition to her contributions to music education, Caryn Wiegand Neidhold is an accomplished conductor, composer, and arranger for both student and professional-level ensembles.
String Theory is available now for $4.95 per book from music retailers and through Kendor Music Publishing’s website.
