Develop an #intuitiveconnection between the #bowhair and the #violinstring by consciously switching between sounding or #contactpoint with this “5 lane” #tonepractice Two videos: 1) “Lane” 5 - just at the edge of the fingerboard. Play with a light, fast bow and do your best to stay way out near the fingerboard. This will feel weird if you’re not used to it! “Lane” 4 - about 1 cm away from the fingerboard. Bow is still relatively fast and light compared to usual playing. “Lane” 3 - Halfway between the bridge and the end of the fingerboard. This will feel more normal as much playing is done here. Weight will increase noticeably from lanes 4 and 5. “Lane” 2 - 1cm away from bridge. Sometimes known as the #kreisler highway (coined by #fritzkreisler ), this is where most playing is done and will feel the most normal of all the lanes. Weight is significantly increased from lanes 4 and 5 “Lane” 1 - Next to the bridge. Use a much slower bow than you would in whatever passage you’re practicing. “Coax” the string with less weight than lane 2. 2) Performance version - Play the sound you hear. You will feel a much more natural, easy and intuitive connection with the tone! Note: Lanes will “squish” together toward the bridge in higher positions. For example, in 5th position, lane 5 will likely be where lane 3 is in 1st position. Lanes spread slightly on lower strings. For example, on the G string lane 1 will not be exactly next to the bridge and lane 5 will be slightly over the fingerboard. #violinteacher #vivaldiconcerto #violinconcerto #concertoingminor #suzukiviolinmethod #suzukiviolinteacher #suzukibook5 #violinpractice #violintechnique #violinpedagogy #stringplayer #orchestraplayers #antoniovivaldi #antoniovivaldi🎻 #vivavivaldi #beautifulviolin #beautifulmusic #violinsolo (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYt65AcA07G/?utm_medium=tumblr

When #practicingviolin #sautille I remove the middle an pinky fingers from the bow and gently #pronate the hand (rotate inward or counterclockwise from my perspective). I also pull in slightly with the ring finger. This creates the slightly unbalanced bow hand needed for this bow stroke. I also play this stroke with flat bow hair (no tilt in the bow - every hair touches the string) #violinlesson #violinteacher #violinist #violinista #practicemakesprogress #practiceroom #violinpractice🎻 #violinguy #violintechnique #violinpedagogy #stringpedagogy #viola #cello #orchestraplayers #violinlove #violinfun #playviolin #suzukiviolinteacher #scalesandarpeggios #stringplayer #musiceducation #скрипач (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWdUQ-IgB_U/?utm_medium=tumblr

I love #warchalstrings Warchal “Amber” and currently trying their “Timbre” strings. I purchased these strings a while back and when I took them out, the silver wound D and G strings were totally black with oxidation! No worries - some super fine steel wool did the trick of removing the rust! 1) Not the best picture but if you look closely you can see the clean G string together with the black D before I cleaned it. 2) video showing the half cleaned D string. 3 & 4) Both the A and E strings in this set are slightly wavy, giving more flexibility. I often use Warchal’s amber E with other string brands because it’s virtually whistle proof! 5) The waves even out when the string is installed. Warchal’s “Timbre” strings are only available through authorized dealers such as @foxesmusiccompany #violin #stringplayer #stringsattached #violinstrings #viola #violinistslife #stringsattached #cello #orchestraplayer #orchestramusician #orchestramusicians #violastrings #fiddlestrings #musicianlifestyle #violinist #violist #classicalmusician #classicalviolinist #violinteacher #violintips #practiceroom (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZzPd2srml8/?utm_medium=tumblr

It’s been quite cold in the Washington area lately, which means indoor #relativehumidity levels tend to drop. I try to keep my indoor humidity at around 50% and use #dampit to keep my #violin #viola and #violoncellodaspalla happy! #musicianlife #musicteacher #stringplayer #violinteacher #musicianlife #musicalinstrumentrepair #instrumentcare #stringedinstruments #stringpedagogy #violinpedagogy #violinistlife #violistlife #cellistlife #stringbass #orchestralmusician #orchestramusician #orchestraplayer #violinaccessories #stringsattached #musiceducation (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYoXUBpATEJ/?utm_medium=tumblr
