The “X” notes in the Beatles tunes are “chop” notes. Here’s an excellent video to teach you how to do this: https://youtu.be/QvSdj2Qmh74

Also, several alert cellists sent me information about the Corrette Suite. In case you’re wondering, there IS another movement, but I don’t have an arrangement of it. So we will only be learning the movements in the document below. Here is a YouTube playlist of all the music we’re playing: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_x7O6Uwhp8-EZWUV-Rfl2jgyf0DMwt8Y

2017 Summer Lesson Information – Jennifer Stomberg

Date of last lesson of the semester by day:
Monday: 6/12
Tuesday: 6/6
Wednesday: 6/7
Thursday: 6/8
Saturday: 6/17

If I don’t owe you any make-up lessons, you may start summer lessons any day following your last spring semester lesson:
Monday students: 6/13 or later
Tuesday students: 6/7 or later
Wednesday students: 6/8 or later
Thursday students: 6/9 or later
Saturday students: 6/19 or later

I will be in touch with you individually with how many make-up lessons I owe you. All make-up lessons must be completed by the end of June.

I will be teaching summer lessons on the following days in IN WILMINGTON ONLY:
Tuesday, June 13 – Friday, June 16
Monday, June 19 – Friday, June 23
Monday, July 10 – Thursday, July 13
Monday, July 17 – Friday, July 21 (this week, only evening lessons)
Monday, July 24 – Thursday, July 27

You only need to register and pay for 2 hours of lessons. If you take more, the school will bill you for the extra lessons.

You may take more than one lesson per week, if our schedules allow.

You may (should!) take some of your lessons with Ms. Rowena or Mr. Eric if I am out of town on weeks you would like lessons.

Please send me your day/time preferences in the Remind app and I will start working on a schedule.

Please consider attending the Youth Strings Camp (July 17-21) if you are age 6-12 and Book 2-4. If you are more advanced or older, consider DOCMI (August 7-11.) No auditions necessary for YSC. Call the front desk to schedule an audition for DOCMI.

If you are Book 1-4, and would be interested in a cello group class on Thursday evenings at the same time as the violin class (July 13, 20, 27 and August 3) 6-7pm, please let me know and I will see if we have enough students to run the class.
