More about this title

Why we love this

This workbook cuts through the noise by focusing entirely on what violists need to know before they walk into sectional rehearsal. Rather than duplicating what happens in class, Etling built it as take-home reinforcement so your rehearsal time stays on the music itself, not on explaining ledger lines or finger patterns for the hundredth time.

Who it's for

Violists in beginning and intermediate orchestra programs who need structured, independent practice on the fundamentals. This workbook pairs with your ensemble rehearsals, filling the gap between what you teach in class and what students retain at home.

How to use it

Assign workbook pages weekly alongside your orchestra rehearsals to reinforce whatever you're currently teaching in ensemble. The take-home format means students work through note names, finger patterns, and key signatures on their own time, so sectionals and full rehearsals can focus on sound, intonation, and musicianship.

Skills your students will build

  • Reading note names in alto clef
  • Memorizing finger patterns across positions
  • Understanding key signatures and their viola applications
  • Recognizing standard musical terms and symbols
  • Building foundational music literacy for orchestra participation
