Paul Rolland gives a pedagogy presentation on string pedagogy on Friday, March 31 at 12:50 p.m. in Guzzetta Hall room 149.
This event is free.
The ground-breaking string pedagogy of Paul Rolland is renowned worldwide for its universal application to all levels of string playing, all ages of players and teachers, and all string repertoire. Balanced movements, free from excessive tension, not only allow string players to gain a higher level of musical expression, but also learn advanced skills from the start of the learning process. Incorporating Rolland’s “Actions” into teaching strings increases the teacher’s ability to be successful in their instruction and demonstrating, and also giving the student a clear and accessible vehicle for understanding and executing their movements and skills at the highest level possible. Healthy movements create the best sound, and Paul Rolland String Pedagogy allows players to perform at their highest potential, while maintaining relaxed body balance and minimizing injuries.
