1- Learn the preparatory exercises at the beginning. Each 4-8 measure section correlates to a longer étude. Some students will be able to learn all 5 in a week, and other students will need more time to learn the 5 preparatory exercises. Do not move on to the full études until these five preparatory exercises are mastered.
2- Next, begin to learn the 5 double-stop études in the progression presented in this resource. Start with playing thru the étude in single stops (written out for the students before each double stop étude). The goal here is to teach students to always "find the easy" in whatever repertoire they are learning. The simplified single-stop versions of the études should be sight-readable, and students should find themselves thinking "this is easy" when playing these on their violin. Previewing the more sophisticated double-stop études with the single-stop simplified version is important because it helps the ear identify a melody which will translate into an accurate and in tune interpretation of the double-stop étude.
3- Play the bonus double-stop music for fun to celebrate how far you have come! Visit the FREEBIES page for some more double stop sheet music.
