Description
Sound Innovations para Orquesta de cuerdas, Libro 1, Segunda edición, es el método para estudiantes principiantes de cuerdas más completo y elaborado con una reflexión pedagógica sin igual. Creado con la colaboración de miles de docentes, presenta un diseño de páginas limpio y fácil de seguir, así como un avance progresivo y ordenado en el desarrollo de habilidades. Cada ejercicio cuenta con objetivos claros, refuerzo constante de los nuevos conceptos, oportunidades de interpretación, una amplia variedad de estilos musicales y recursos pedagógicos innovadores para el aula y la práctica individual. Las cabezas de nota no incluyen el nombre de la nota, favoreciendo así el desarrollo acelerado de la lectura musical. El libro se estructura en seis niveles concisos que ofrecen criterios de avance, pautas de evaluación y metas intermedias para guiar a estudiantes y docentes en cada etapa del aprendizaje.

Cada libro incluye acceso gratuito a SI Online, una plataforma robusta con hojas de trabajo, pistas de práctica, melodías alternativas, piezas adicionales para orquesta de cuerdas, videos instructivos por instrumento y mucho más---todo disponible sin necesidad de iniciar sesión. Las pistas de acompañamiento pueden ralentizarse, acelerarse y configurarse en modo de repetición para trabajar los pasajes más difíciles. Los archivos PDF incluyen teoría musical, historia, ejercicios de escalas, páginas de ritmos, piezas de técnica y más para el refuerzo y la personalización del aprendizaje en el aula o en casa. Estos recursos acompañan al estudiante desde sus primeras notas hasta su interpretación final, mientras que ofrecen al docente la facilidad de adaptar el ritmo y la instrucción a las necesidades particulares de su ensamble. Por el momento, los recursos de SI Online están disponibles únicamente en inglés. Si bien este contenido digital constituye un recurso valioso para este método, los videos y materiales adicionales aún no han sido traducidos al español.

El Libro 1, Segunda edición, está disponible de forma gratuita en MakeMusic Cloud, una herramienta interactiva de práctica que motiva a tus estudiantes y simplifica la evaluación.

About the Authors

Bob Phillips
Bob Phillips, born in 1953, is a composer, author, and conductor recognized for transforming string education through innovative pedagogy and diverse musical styles. His expertise in large group instruction and eclectic repertoire has established him as a leading figure in contemporary music education. With thousands of string students performing his works annually, Phillips has become one of the most influential educational composers of our time.

His catalog includes over 25 book series for classroom use, among them all six levels of Sound Innovations and groundbreaking eclectic collections such as Fiddlers Philharmonic, Jazz Philharmonic, Rock Philharmonic, and Mariachi Philharmonic. Phillips has published more than 200 compositions for orchestras and bands and holds recognition as an award-winning ASCAP composer. His instructional video series, String Clinics to Go, has reached thousands of teachers, while his works receive regular performance at the prestigious Midwest Clinic.

Over 27 years in Saline, Michigan, Phillips built a string program of more than 700 students that became a national model for excellence in both classical and eclectic music. He founded the Saline Fiddlers Philharmonic, which under his direction achieved international prominence through over 80 annual performances, multiple White House appearances, and performances at the Midwest Clinic. Phillips has also served as assistant music director and arranger for the professional ensemble Barrage 8 and conducted extensively with youth symphonies, all-state orchestras, and prestigious camps including those at Interlochen and Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp. He held the position of resident conductor and arranger for Seattle's Wintergrass Festival for 12 years.

His influence extends far beyond his institutional roles through "Boonshaft's Blog," a weekly publication that continues to guide and inspire music educators nationwide.

His leadership has earned him remarkable recognition throughout his career. Boonshaft received the inaugural George M. Parks Award for Leadership in Music Education from the National Association for Music Education and Music For All. He holds membership in both Pi Kappa Lambda and Alpha Chi honor societies and has been selected three times as a National Endowment for the Arts "Artist in Residence." His other accolades include the University of Hartford's Outstanding Music Educator Award (received twice), the Al G. Wright Award of Distinction from Women Band Directors International, and honorary life memberships in the Tri-M Music Honor Society (three times). He has also been recognized with official proclamations from five state governors and a Certificate of Appreciation from President Ronald Reagan.

Beyond his academic work, Boonshaft has conducted and spoken throughout all fifty states and internationally, performing for presidents and world leaders including George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and Margaret Thatcher. He previously taught at Moravian College and the University of Hartford. He founded and directed both the Pennsylvania Youth Honors Concert Band and the Connecticut Valley Youth Wind Ensemble. His formal training includes a Bachelor of Music (Summa Cum Laude), a Master of Music Education in Conducting, and a Doctor of Musical Arts degree, along with a Certificate from the Kodály Musical Training Institute, which he studied through a Connecticut General Fellowship.

He appears frequently as a guest conductor for All-State and Regional Honor Bands and conducts clinics at universities and state music education conferences across the country. His international experience spans Japan, Canada, Italy, Germany, Australia, and China, and his works have been performed at Carnegie Hall, Orchestra Hall, Boston's Symphony Hall, the Sydney Opera House, and the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.

In 2020, VanderCook College of Music honored Sheldon with a doctoral degree in recognition of his significant contributions to music education and composition.

Why we love this

The pedagogical architecture here reflects real classroom needs: six clearly defined levels let you assess where students actually are, not where you hope they'll be. The progression balances deliberate skill sequencing with immediate performance opportunities, so beginners stay engaged while building fundamentals steadily. SI Online transforms practice into something students want to do by themselves, which solves the real problem of getting beginners to practice seriously at home.

What to expect

Fresh and purposeful. Each exercise exists for a reason, and students feel the progression immediately. The variety of musical styles keeps engagement high while the clean page layout and unlabeled note heads signal that serious reading is happening right now.

Who it's for

Beginning bass players working through their first year or two of instruction in a string orchestra setting. This book guides students from fundamentals through to confident ensemble playing, with clear benchmarks for advancement throughout the six levels.

How to get the most out of it

  • Use the practice tracks on SI Online to slow challenging passages down to a manageable tempo, then gradually increase speed as intonation and rhythm solidify.
  • Lock in with the accompaniment tracks by identifying the strongest pulse markers in your part, then practice isolated sections against the full track before running the piece straight through.
  • Consult the instructional videos for your specific passages if technique questions arise during rehearsal; these clips address common stumbling blocks for bass players at this level.
  • Set the online tracks to repeat mode for passages that demand repeated exposure (extended bow patterns, position shifts, rhythmic figures) rather than running full pieces every time.

How to use it

Anchor your beginning bass curriculum with this method, using the six levels as your scope and sequence for the year. The included orchestral pieces give students real repertoire to learn from the start, turning method book lessons into actual ensemble performance without waiting months for "readiness."

Skills your students will build

  • Reading bass clef without note head labels
  • Bow control and sustained tone production
  • Whole steps and half steps on the fingerboard
  • Rhythmic reading in simple and compound meters
  • Position awareness and shifting technique
  • Ensemble intonation and blend
  • Interpretation of dynamic and tempo markings
  • Musical phrasing and articulation choices
