Unit 2: Mastering Low String Technique

-Advanced posture and instrument positioning that support refined tone production.
-Greater control of bow technique including articulation, bow distribution, and tone consistency.
-Accurate intonation through refined left-hand finger placement and shifting.
-The coordination between left-hand finger patterns and right-hand bow control.

-Practice advanced scale patterns and technical exercises to strengthen intonation and tone.
-Develop control of bow speed, weight, and placement for consistent articulation.
-Perform exercises that improve finger dexterity and coordination between both hands.
-Apply music reading skills when performing more complex technical passages.

Students perform scale patterns and exercises demonstrating refined tone and intonation.

Students demonstrate consistent bow control and articulation during technical studies.

Students reflect on practice strategies that support continued technical development.
