Esta clase a distancia por videoconferencia Zoom es para estudiantes que ya han cursado el NIVEL 2.
El NIVEL 3 se enfocará en incorporar un uso más avanzado del arco y repertorio nuevo que les hará practicar los conocimientos que vayan adquiriendo. Se les retará a aprender nuevas técnicas (ej. escalas y arpegios, vibrato), a leer tablatura, y más sobre la cultura, historia y geografía de México (eg. los presidentes y principales ciudades de México)
¡Los padres también se pueden inscribir y aprender sobre la música y la cultura de México junto con sus hijos! Tenemos descuentos familiares para hermanos, primos, abuelos, padres e hijos que quieran aprender a tocar violín juntos. También aceptamos adultos sin niños interesados en aprender en un ambiente familiar.
Las clases son en español y el repertorio se deriva en el folclor mexicano. Sin embargo, las bases musicales y la teoría que aprenderán se pueden aplicar en cualquier estilo de música.
Cada estudiante debe traer su propio violín. Si aún no tienes un instrumento, llámanos y pregunta sobre violines a precios razonables.

Improvements:
Class size ! When I first booked I was told class size was small no more than 6-7 people. I was also told that they would talk about Mexican culture and history. My son was not happy or interested.
Guitar Class Level 1 (MFS)
Location: BELMONT/CRAGIN: Metropolitan Family Services - North Children's Center | Instructor: Erendira Izguerra
Response from Sones de Mexico Ensemble
I have alerted the teacher to include the units on history and geography to provide cultural context for the music in the book. Regarding class size, I'm sorry that you were misinformed: 6-7 is actually the "minimum" size. Feel free to communicate directly with the teacher if there is something else you are missing. He is very receptive. Thanks for bringing it up. Sincerely - Juan Dies, Director.
