    Wonderful video breaking down mechanics of shifting and keeping same finger patterns. Makes total sense. Thank you!

    Thanks so much. I've been trying to master viola 3rd position and its intimidating to introduce a second. Great starting point.

    If her fingers weren't too vertical she would have no problem keeping 2 + 3 down together in second position. Ruggiero Ricci advocated playing on the pads of the fingers rather than the tips. He also warned about the dangers of "playing the trombone" - in other words the whole-arm shifting demonstrated here. I used to play like this but Ricci's approach is much more ergonomic - I wish I'd discovered it much sooner.

    Shifting with hand, not with fingers that was new to me. Thanks

    • @martinh1277
      @martinh1277 Před 5 lety

      In orchester scores there is no fingerings. They mostly play the system they learned in the Etudes of Kreutzer.

    Why 441 but not 440Hz?

    • @ViolinViolaMasterclass
      @ViolinViolaMasterclass  Před 6 lety +2

      李立峰 it’s considered to be standard tuning for orchestras...although the pitch is continuing to rise :) some orchestras tune to 445

    • @mechanicaldidgeridoo5741
      @mechanicaldidgeridoo5741 Před 6 lety

      My understanding is that here in UK orchestras tune to 442. Is the case with piano concertos, at any rate. Amazingly, such a small difference does make a difference to the perceived sound: it's brighter somehow. If you have a tuner compare, A440 to A442: I think you'll appreciate that there is a difference!

    • @jojoUK120
      @jojoUK120 Před 6 lety +1

      mechanical didgeridoo Why isn’t the ideal pitch determined by the dimensions of the sound box? Doesn’t the box itself resonate better at a particular tuning?

    What is a half step

    • @michaeldgn9813
      @michaeldgn9813 Před 4 lety

      Shaunak Chittimalla a semitone, so if you played the open A string, the first finger in first position would produce a B flat which would be a half step. Hope that makes sense!

  • @czertvunclepepper2335
    @czertvunclepepper2335 Před 5 lety

    you ought to run the scale of the position 2 octave ,as for me it s an incomplete lesson

  • @trade_design23
    @trade_design23 Před 4 lety

    WHY !? - do you keep using that horrible camera angle. We can NOT see your hands on the fingerboard. The camera needs to be ABOVE the violin, (or at least level with) and looking DOWN. That way you need only to lower the fingerboard slightly for viewers to clearly see what you are doing with your left hand.
