Hi! I really love your way of playing and the beautiful sound you produce ❤ I have a question... when playing, my thumb with which I hold the violin bends, I don't know if I should relax my hand more (Sorry if I don't understand, English is not my native language)
Hi there, and lovely to hear from you! To answer your question - in general, we want to be as relaxed as possible when playing - and the thumb should have a relaxed starting position, and then only press gently when the fingers press on the strings. Any additional tension will unfortunately make playing harder than it needs to be, so it is definitely worth working on improving that:-) Wishing you all the very best for your practice!🙏🎻🦋
Lol, thats sweet:-). I teach full time now and am approaching 50 years old, so no longer a student in that sense, but I keep on learning more every day🎻✨🦋

Thanks for such a clean video showing the bow technique, seeing bow articulations while listening is so valuable in learning.
You are so welcome! Glad to be of help:-) And I hope to see some content on your channel soon as well! Warmest regards from Vienna!

Can you please give some tips on gavotte by mingon in book 2? I have to master it by February and i would really appreciate it❤
Will do my best! Do practice B flat major on A and E string (Fourth finger pattern) that solves almost all the difficulties in the middle section!🎻🌸🦋
I’ve also experienced that. It is pretty hard if you meant the c section.
How many videos do you make?and how do you even set up so many videos?
I have about 140 videos:-). Takes a lot of time and effort... Hope they help your practice!
Thanks so much!!!
💙🌻
sure
Do you play in concerts around the world or when you’re teaching
I used to play concerts around the world, but now I play online and teach fulltime:-)

How many videos do you have ?
Are you still a student or a teacher teaching students
Lol, thats sweet:-). I teach full time now and am approaching 50 years old, so no longer a student in that sense, but I keep on learning more every day🎻✨🦋
That’s nice
