    *33:43 Toasts with an Ale-8
    Somebody said the violinists who win auditions are the ones who sound like a violin section sounds. You do that better than anybody I've ever heard and it's very enjoyable.

      At 34:00 the way you describe connecting the 16th with what comes after, that is maybe the essence of Stephen Foster I think, and one thing that gives him a poignant old-fashioned quality. It's as defining of personality as equally important things you'd do in Mozart or Beethoven.

    Having a stand partner who is always phrasing is a blessing. I find the opposite makes it suffocating. Keep phrasing! Thank you Mr. Cole

    Thanks for a great video! So nice that a teacher actually explains what phrasing is in the first place - in my experience, almost none ever does - and then demonstrates it so beautifully.

    As a non-violinist but long time pianist and relatively recent jazz soprano saxophone player I find Nathan’s videos and musical suggestions both fascinating and useful. Phrasing is what defines great musicians and great orchestral and chamber music performances IMO and Nathan provides a methodology for developing your own phrasing or should we say interpretation, of a musical score. What interests me in particular however, is developing vocal phrasing when improvising over a form or even freely. For many jazz standards there are vocal performances as a guide for the melody but this is not the same as an improvisation. Any suggestions would be welcome. Phrasing and singing through your instrument is the goal for many of us.

    What a fascinating lesson! Starting from the grammar rather than bowing-fingerings. Thank you so much Nathan!

    It will be the first thing I will do while beginning to work on Glazunov violin concerto! Thank you!

    Very interesting subject for violinists! I think that one of the best phrasing violinists is Josef Hassid who died very young but left a small bunch of recordings that are astonishingly beautiful and well phrased (and with originality)… and what sound and vibrato!

      Yes, he was a great player and we only have a bit of his playing to remember him by!

    I wish I had seen this video when I was 12, fantastically useful.
