Playing the String Game

Playing the String Game is a unique how-to book designed for the busy string teacher. Packed with hundreds of creative teaching ideas, it can be used with any string teaching method.

With more than thirty years of experience teaching students, Phyllis Young has created an amazing compendium of strategies that are grounded in strong pedagogical theory. Broken up into hundreds of “games,” her lessons help children (and adults) visualize the exact methods being taught. Playing the String Game is an invaluable aid for anyone teaching music for the first time, or for those looking for a new approach.
