Event details
The MTSA Fall Workshop welcomes beginning Suzuki violinists (pre-twinkle or early book 1) to participate in the Pre-Twinklers' Mini-Workshop, as part of a wonderful weekend of fun, learning, and music for students of all ages and experience levels.
Guest clinician Terry Durbin will lead two group classes for beginning students on Friday evening and Saturday afternoon. Pre-Twinkler participants will work on foundational aspects of playing the violin through pre-twinkle games and the first few songs of Suzuki Book 1, and perform on the final concert
PLEASE NOTE: Students that are beyond mid-Book 1 should register for the full Student Workshop. Students working in the beginning of Book 1 can decide if they want to register for the shorter and more foundational mini-workshop or participate in the book 1 group of the the full workshop.
Teachers should look under Workshop: Teacher Enrichment Seminar.
