鈴木鎮一先生是位傑出的音樂教育家,於1946年創立鈴木教學法並將鈴木教學法彙編成教材出版。鈴木教材的樂曲選擇變化多元,民謠、舞曲、協奏曲均為耳熟能詳的樂曲,並為出版教材演奏CD。強調學習前先聽CD,反覆不斷,於日常生活中大量聆聽,讓孩子在不知不覺中將旋律記到腦海中,訓練出孩子的絕對音感。鈴木教材不單適用於小提琴,目前已經廣泛應用於其他管、弦樂器上。
鈴木教材的學習要點:
1.培養卓越的音樂敏感度
儘量每天為您的孩子尋找傾聽的機會,聆聽他將要學習的作品CD。當孩子們在學習之前熟悉這些東西,他們正在發展內在能力,這正是培養動力本質的最好方法。一旦動機到位,你的孩子會實踐與享受,發展優越。小提琴是培養人性的媒介,同時能提升音感能力並使心靈平靜。
2.美音訓練
歌唱練習中,有一種叫做美聲唱法,是為了培養美妙、優雅的聲音。此教學從發聲練習開始,訓練歌聲的質量和力量。對於樂器演奏者來說,這也是至關重要的。教師帶領學生們在每節課程中進行美音訓練,在家裡也要持續練習,才能使他們發展出更好的能力。
3.發展平衡姿勢
在學習新樂器時,正確的姿勢才能演奏出更精準的音色。例如演奏小提琴時,平衡的姿勢和自然的持弓是最基本且最重要的演奏法則。
4.創造動力
家長和老師都必須培養孩子的動機,以便他能以享受音樂及高度意願的方式練習。
The purpose of these arrangements is to provide a variety of interesting and challenging material for Suzuki guitar students who are beyond Book 1 and are playing in a Suzuki guitar group class.
The arrangements allow students, who may be widely divergent in playing levels, the opportunity to perform together in the Book 1 repertoire.
These arrangements include the original melodies transposed one octave higher, giving the student practice in reading ledger lines and playing beyond the 12th fret,
a obbligato melody that poses technical challenges to advanced students, a simple chordal accompaniment that gives the Book 2 student excellent free stroke arpeggio practice,
and a bass part that gives the student practice in reading the lower ledger lines.
These parts work well together, but can also be used with the original melodies.
