Dd has been learning violin for a year, she has 1:1 lessons and loves it. She happily practices 5-10 minutes every day and often picks it up just to play pieces she enjoys for fun.
Anyway she’s started asking about exams, I’ll check with her teacher after half term but I was wondering if anyone could give me a rough idea of what she will have to be able to do.
I’m the least musical person in the world, teacher says her sight reading is very good and if means anything to people in the know she’s now on 3rd finger on a & d (literally no idea what this means ) and is one of two children in the string band at school who are second violin (apparently there’s is one 1st violin and then some others who play but aren’t 1st or 2nd, again I don’t know what this means, just trying to give an idea of where she’s at).
She genuinely loves it so much and I think wants to have something to show for this hence the interest in the exams.
