SUMMARY:Fun With Scales!
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Eric Ruple\, James Madison University.  Dutch treat lunch to follow. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE PRESENTATION \n\n\n\n“Fun With Scales…Really” \n\n\n\nThis workshop is all about the teaching and playing of scales. Is scale practice a daily routine for yourself and your students? Or is it more akin to pulling teeth\, a “lost cause” or a Sisyphusian exercise in futility? We will review and explore why they are important\, take a fresh look at how we teach them (yes\, folks\, much of this this WILL be controversial)\, and show some ways to help you to never get bored playing or teaching them ever again!ABOUT THE PRESENTER​Steinway Artist Eric Ruple is on the piano faculty at James Madison University.  He enjoys an active career as a solo and chamber musician\, including several performances at the Kennedy Center in Washington\, DC and Steinway Hall in New York.
