  • cool!

  • violin!!!

  • hey dicerald did u get it figured out? i think you didnt have enough pressure in you bow hand or you bridge may b set to high

  • Wow. Very interesting ! 5*****

  • thanks for the lesson. I'm a complete beginner in violin I'm not used to it. (I self-study) hey, how do you avoid the screeching noises (whatever you call it) while playing the violin? my hand is used to the piano so i think my hand has a lot of weight while holding the bow that makes the screeching noises.

  • Chevyman, i think it depends on the bow. Some bows are naturally tight, but it looks like too loose. But yeah for normal bows, i think it should be tightened up a little.

  • loco sos re capo , lastima q mucho ingles no entiendo , pero esta re copado!!!!!!!: )

  • I have been going through the string crossing series this evening and when I hit pt4 my girlfriend told me that I sound "100% better". Nicely done. Thanks. Larry

  • Good for you! I'm glad they helped.

  • oh by the way... im playing right now is minuet 3 and Gavotte from suzuki book 1... too sad cant make the squeeks go away...

  • is there any exercise i can make for playing tied notes... its hard for me to cross the string from a-string to d-string cause i always here a squeek T_T... by the way thanks for the information..

  • can the bridge also have an effect on crossing strings.... what i mean is if the bridge is not properly curve???... when im looking at my bridge and imagining it to be cut in the middle into side A and B... it looks like the the curve of side A is not proportionate with side B... is that fine???

  • Hi dicerald, Yes, that is normal. The G side is supposed to be a little higher than the E side. The space between the strings should all be the same though. TE

  • thank you for your videos. i have been watching a lot and i learned how to do vibrato from you! I currently do not have a teacher and have been trying to teach myself. So thank you for these lessons and keep up with the good work!! bye

  • Muito Bom - Very Good !!!

  • I use to touch the next string to that one I'm playing, and I can't help it. I'm not sure if it's because of my wrist or my arm.

    Can you give me some advice to avoid that?

  • Linuxica,

    Start by placing your bow right in the middle, on the A string. Space it right between the E and the D. Now bow three inches and stop. Did it move closer to the E or D or did it stay right between the two? Go back to the middle and bow 4 inches with the same intention. Then try the middle 3rd of the bow. Can you stay right between the D and E?  If so, do the same exercize with your eyes closed! Good luck.

  • Thank you!

    I'll do as you say. :D
