I recorded this as practice for an orchestra audition. I added some reverb to make it sound more natural.

  • Just out of curiosity, how do you practice? And by that I mean in general, not just for Dvorak. I really like the tone and intonation you have!

  • @archilus0805 I'm no expert, but here's what works for me. Learn everything at half tempo with the metronome. If half tempo is still too fast, take it even slower. Get the tone and intonation perfect. You will then feel like a ZEN MASTER. Only after you've mastered a whole movement at half tempo should you try and speed it up.

  • @archilus0805 And always use the metronome. No cheating.

  • @cellohonkey Awesome! Thank you! Just one more question hehe. Typically, how does one of your practice sessions go?

  • @archilus0805 It depends on how much you are practicing each day. If you only do one session, I recommend 2 hours with at least 30 minutes of scales, arpeggios and misc technique practice, 30 minutes of an etude, and then an hour of repertoire. If you have the whole day, it's a different story.

  • wow that reverb is perfect. Makes it sound like you are actually in a concert hall. What software did you to do so?

  • It's an effect built into my audio interface which is a E-MU 1616m. It works for internet video, but the reverb sounds kind of fake on higher quality audio.

  • Dude, that is mad skill. Especially the triplets at the end. And overall tone... just amazing.

  • wow great intonation! though, I would recommend more vibrato in the beginning.. maybe it is the youtube upload bad sound quality, but i know the vibrato could improve a bit... but nice!

see all
