Throwback ... almost Thursday!

Throwback Thursday

Jiab, Gulab's mom was nice to share all these pictures with me. I decided to just upload them and let you relive the moments! 

Lots of fun times in the last year or so!

Do you remember these concerts? 
When we used to all be together!?

Missing all my students!

Links for Online Violin lessons

 

Links to

Sheet Music

The above link will take you to the page where you
will find folders that organize different music by level.
Find the appropriate music you need and copy the markings that you need 
for new pieces you are learning.
  • I organized most of the music by books
  • Some by type, I.e. Exercises or Flashcards, etc...
I also updated a new folder on my Google Drive where you can find
These are organized by:

  • Supplementary Videos - so far only Pachelbel's Canon in D is in there
  • Book 2 Videos
  • Etude Videos - Again only Doflein so far. (This is not Etude from book 1, this is extra videos from exercise books with duets that you can play along with)
  • Videos of various Scales
    • You can also find many of these scales on the YouTube Playlist - Studio: Scales

Don't forget to check out my different YouTube links that have
videos for learning new scales, techniques or playing with an accompanist.

You can also go to the Practice Recordings page to help you find the audio recordings you need to practice your current piece. I don't have all of the books, but many are there. 

New Suzuki mp3 recordings to download by 

Hilary Hahn. See the Alfred Suzuki Page.  
Scroll down to "Where to Purchase" You can find several links for Volumes 1-3
There are 3 different types of downloads: 
Amazon, Alfred or iTunes.

Suzuki Violin and Life During this Bizarre Season

Staying at Home

Violin at Home

School at Home

Whole Family at Home

Vacation at Home

This new normal is nothing like we ever really imagined life would be like in the 21st century. I have to say though that I have enjoyed more time with my boys, even though they can make me crazy at the end of the day... 

when I'm finishing up my last lessons... 

and they need to let out some steam...

and start running, jumping off of the stairs and fighting with one another. 😏

Thank you for your patience with all of the craziness of the Almetus Home!  😀 (I'm sure that never happens with you all at home) 

I just wanted to update my blog with some fun pictures with outings that have helped keep my sanity. I'm also sharing some pictures some of you have sent to me. Keep sharing them and I'll up load more on here. I'm glad you are all finding ways to stay active and healthy mentally as well as physically.

Putah Creek on a very HOT day!

Celeste's long Bike ride to town!

Theo working hard!


Hello I'm a Pop Star (i.e. perfect words for Mississippi Stop Stop!) 🤣
I love it Sonia!!!
  • Also, if you would like some beautiful and fun classical music videos check out my YouTube playlist: Studio: music to checkout. 
  • You can also check out  Studio: fun. My book 3-4 group should really check out the "Cellist's Nightmare." You will enjoy the funny video that goes with Pachelbel's Canon. Any cellist will relate to this one! 😆
  • Lastly there is a simple and helpful Tuning video on YouTube that you can reference when tuning your child's violin. I will have the Zoom Tuning tutorial coming up. See emails for information.
