December 3, 2015 at 01:29 AM · Hi Mike...long time! I also swing them for blues, and I also stay strictly within the patterns for the notes of whatever Major scale I'm in. Lydian seems to like different phrasings than swing. heck, I haven't even tried the fourths over Phrygian yet, but I bet the edgy sound of the fourths should go great over that dark minor mode.

2010年4月11日 · Also there is a slight delay in sound over the violin. If you use violin technique, you will have a weak sound and you will come in late if you do not grip the strings with your bow before you play. This is just a start. Cello is a very rewarding beautiful instrument and it requires a different approach than the violin.

2020年11月5日 · Violin strings' fingering intervals are uneven? October 13, 2020, 8:52 AM · The strings of my student's violin are uneven for fingering purposes--when he plays a 3 on E, for example, it's higher pitched than it should be based on his 3 on A. The higher the note on the E string, the lower, relatively, he has to play it as opposed to where it ...

2019年10月17日 · For most notes of a melody, equal-tempered intervals work well with the occasional expressive intonation used where artistically appropriate. It is the rare person indeed who can discern a difference of 4 cents or less. And for the violin the difference in tuning of adjacent open strings between equal-tempered and perfect fifth is a mere 2 cents.

"These double-stop exercises are a cornerstone of the Vamos' technical teaching," Falkner said. They consist of seven basic finger patterns, covering every possible set of intervals. They are to be practiced in seven positions and on all sets of adjacent strings. There are also bowing exercises that go along with them.

2012年12月15日 · Label: Found on the inside of the violin by looking through the left "f"-hole, this tells who made the violin, where it was made, and in what year. Except when the label is fake! Legato: smooth, connected bow stroke. Limerick: more entertaining poetry about the violin. Luthier: maker of a stringed instrument such as a violin, viola, cello, bass ...

September 22, 2010 at 02:45 PM · Learning theory using the piano is the way to go, because the piano gives you a visual picture of intervals, chords, and scales. On a violin, if you play an open E string, then play 1 st finger F#, you have played two notes that are a whole step

2024年11月1日 · A faster vibrato doesn't come as easily for me, though. For the viola, slower & wider. The left can can relax more with the violin - so it is important to really get the tension out. With the viola, the intervals are larger, so different fingerings are often needed. 4th finger extensions in lower positions are quite rare.

2024年10月27日 · But your goal is to blend the intervals on your violin, and you can eventually wean yourself from the extra tool. Instead, tune each note with an upper or lower open string as a double stop. Play a slow whole bow and find the sweet spot. Watch the amplitude of the string. The goal isn't just to be in tune, but to make notes blend.

2010年3月9日 · I like the explanation that the violin resonates better if it's tuned to 5th's than it does tuned to other intervals. I find it strange that so many violinists choose to tune their violin to close 5th's, to solve some of the problems of consecutive 5th's getting "wider". I think that is a bad compromise, as the violin doesn't resonate nearly as ...
