A talk-through of the technical challenges of playing this piece. Look for my Witches Dance Play-Through clip if you want to practice playing the piece through.

  • I am not learning violin through Suzuki method but sometimes I like to challenge myself by picking a piece from Suzuki method that I feel that fits my level. I decided to pick this theme since I like very much to listen music composed by Niccolò Paganini. I am absolutely delighted with your teaching way, it took me only 3 hours to learn this theme with reasonable tone just by doing the bowing trick that you said may look childness but it is pretty useful!

    Thank you very much!

  • @Tr0jan1337  - oh excellent! I'm glad to hear it worked well for you.

  • hey!why are you talk many things?

  • @sukiabbbie - well, "practice" videos are for talking and explaining, and "play-through" videos are to practice playing without talking. Look in the playlist for Suzuki violin book 2 to find the play-through video.

  • I started playing the violin again last year after a 50-year break, and my teacher put me on Suzuki Volume 2, which is a bit challenging but very enjoyable. Your videos are a great help. My teacher is excellent, but because of my poor Japanese (I live in Japan), I miss some of the finer points (obvious ones, too).

  • @Rogjp - glad this helps. You might consider using the pieces in book 1 as études - they're simpler and allow you to iron out specific things like clean bow changes or string levels.Anyway, have fun and good luck with your Japanese - it sounds so hard to learn!
