Dear Parents,
Finally we’re all back to work and I’m looking forward to start a new exciting School year full of Music and songs!
I’m writing you this letter to kindly remind you about some important aspects of the Music Instrument Activity (Recorder, Flute) which is an important part of the annual program, together with History of Music and Music Theory.
Students should have a good quality instrument (“Flauto in Do” – marca “Aulos” o “Yamaha”, around 20 euros). The students will find all the exercises on their book “Musica in Jeans” Vol. A.
I will be providing audio files (on the “Homework section” in Regel) so the students can listen to the music exercise and try to play it with their instrument
The usual time of practicing at home should be around 10-15 minutes per day. Also, starting from this year i’ve decided to adopt the “Recorder Karate Dojo”, a Rewarding System that uses coloured strings, same as Karate Belts, that students should collect depending on their level of skills.
It is important that every student will bring the Flute and the books “Musica in Jeans Vol. A-B” to every music lessons. If they are missing the Flute for two or more lessons the School will ask you to buy a second Flute that will be taken in class.
I’m available for any additional info, suggestions, and feedback!
Best Regards,
Davide Alivernini
Music Teacher
