Music Teacher  |  October 2015
In this special strings edition of Music Teacher, classical guitarist Miloš Karadaglić discusses his own music education and the pressures often placed upon young performers; how chamber music organisations are drawing on the experience of established ensembles in the coaching and development of new string quartets; Trinity Laban’s Claire Mera-Nelson on the troubling shortage of viola and double bass players; transferrable skills for teachers of fretted string instruments; and our round-up of violin music to broaden your students’ musicianship. Plus, ABRSM’s new chief executive Michael Elliot speaks to MT about his plans for the exam board, from communicating with teachers and pupils to letting candidates book exam places like airline tickets; Drake Music Scotland’s campaign to help musicians with disabilities; using technology to help young people with SEND to engage in and enjoy music; Woodcroft Primary School’s award-winning music curriculum; and a sneak peak at the conference programme for 2016’s Music Education Expo.
