Abstract
The purpose of this project was to inform and enhance my work as
a cello and string teacher in public and private schools, and as a
performing cellist.
The project encompasses three parts. For four terms I studied the
cello with Dr. Pamela Highbaugh-Aloni. Following this I presented a cello
recital and subsequently constructed a reflective, research based narrative
inquiry of my cello study and recital.
The resulting exploration of physical action and artistic emotion in
music was achieved through the additional methodologies of:
• literature review of the history of the cello and the pieces
performed;
• study and analysis of string pedagogy by viewing DVD’s by
Paul Rolland and Mimi Zweig, and books by Elizabeth Green
and Phyllis Young;
• participation in the 2012 Montreal Institute Suzuki Book One
training;
• analysis of Royal Conservatory of Toronto & Victoria
Conservatory Syllabi;
• analysis of classroom method books.
I concluded by asking questions that could lead to further studies
in string education.
