All the Music. . . .

Hoope Twinkles is built around Suzuki Repertoire "Play-Downs".  We start with advanced repertoire (book 7 or 8), and then add players as we go backward through the repertoire.  You'll find the list of pieces we've chosen for this year below, along with 3 other songs we want to play together. 

IF YOU ONLY KNOW TWINKLE, TWINKLE LITTLE STAR, YOU CAN PLAY WITH US!

Below, you'll find 3 different pieces that you can learn to play with Hoope Twinkles this year: one for Thanksgiving, and two for Christmas.  Below that is the list of Suzuki songs and pieces we'll be playing in our Play-Downs.

"Praise and Thanksgiving" is an easy Thanksgiving round.  You can download it by clicking the button below. There are parts for easy violin, harder violin, viola and cello. Please memorize it! 

Of course, Christmas is not far off, so Jingle Bells will be appropriate!  Here's the melody, for violin, viola or cello.  If you are in Book 1, and haven't learned Etude yet, you'll want to play only the chorus (where the words say "Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells."

And "We Wish You a Merry Christmas!"  The top part is for Violin, the middle one for Viola, and the bottom one for Cello. These are melody parts, in the Key of D (using D-string notes).  If you want harmony parts, email Mrs. Francisco.

and ALWAYS, we'll play Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star! Every hour, on the hour, we'll "Twinkle" :-)

sometimes starting on A, sometimes starting on D, sometimes both. . . !
