Valentina Jakoubovskaya’s 30 years of experience as a violin teacher resulted in writing the present book, ‘Up the stairs’ that comprised all the pedagogical wisdom the author could possibly muster.
Its goal — not to discourage small pupils struggling with violin at the initial period of violin studies. The present book suggests some modern ideas, like studying positions from the first steps on violin, etc.
The book will undoubtedly interest young violinists (5–7 years old) as well as their teachers.
