Excelent. I do not speak english so much, but i see your movements, your hands and i understand almost everything... I really speak spanish. But i try todo it, i love violin...
I play viola and have been having difficulty with fast bowings. Oddly, my friend, who is much better than I am, told me that fast bowing SHOULD be done closer to the frog. She uses more wrist movement than arm movement for it and she sounds really good. I do find it easier to do it the way you show, but considering my friend does it near the frog and she does it well (nothing like how you were showing your students do it) I'm not totally sure she's doing it wrong.
Wish I had a teacher like you..... :(
i love how you teaching the violin , thank you so much for your sharing
If you would like to donate then there are donate links under nearly all my videos to pay securely via Paypal. You dont have to pay me anything as I do not do these videos for money at all - its all for FREE! yay
I will 68 this month and start learning later in life. Sometimes I question if I can develop these techniques at this late stage of life. So thanks for your video. I found it to be helpful!! 😊
So I began playing fiddle (Irish, Scottish primarily) - that was 2 yrs ago. I've done remarkably well for not having lessons; but I should also mention that I play Professionally- Irish flute/whistle, bodhran, congas, djembe, strumstick, vocals... I was progressing well, until my motorcycle crash. I didn't think I'd play ANYTHING again! :( I viewed your vids tonight, and you teach wonderfully.. and SO pretty too! I'm hooked again! Nice. Thanks so much, cutie...:)
Thanks a ton for providing these lessons for free here on RUclips. Your efforts really are appreciated!
You’re a wonderful teacher. Thank you so much for posting this.
This is just what I needed, when I slow down to a crawl I can hear even as small as a 1hz difference in a note,practice slow enough and it's just a matter of muscle memory, from the start bowing is what I've needed to focus all of my practice on
… how can you hear a 1 Hz difference?
I have never had any formal violin lessons. I only had formal lessons as a singer.
Anyway, I started playing violin but 50 years ago I were in a motorcycle accident and I had problems in turning my wrist. But after this 50 years, I can move my wrist again and packed out my violin. I play the piano, organ, etc and I also have and play a mandolin. So where the notes are is no problem. What my problem were is the correct technique. I realized that I have got a great problem around there. Then I discovered you You Tube lessons and demonstrations. Now I am taking up your tips very seriously and I am so enthusiastic to learn to play the violin far better than ever before. Thanks to you, very very much.
Mornay Jansen
Its over 200 years German violin. One of a kind. Thats all we know about it.
This video is just what I need. Thank you! Started practicing Schubert symphony no. 8 (Unfinished) :)
Thanks for the bowing tips. Very nicely presented.
you're really awesome.. I've actually taken up learning the violin about 4 months ago after asking you if to late to start learning - and trust me I'm loving every bit of learning the violin!
Thanks for your videos - they're lovely, you're lovely, I mean what more can you ask for :)
Ryan D'souza. I need help my self I can't get the sound where it needs to be the music store got it where. it should be but I try again tonight not the sound I wanted
I am a beginner violinist and this helped a ton, thanks!
You're an awesome teacher for sure some of the greatest tricks i've learnt from you
Very helpful. I’ve never played before but the Lord put the desire to play in my heart and I’ve been watching your videos to help me learn. Thank you.
I am 50 years old and a long time guitar player and if currently picked up the violin thank you for all of your information my main focus is Bluegrass but classical violin is extremely beautiful your information and teaching are invaluable thank you
THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR SKILLS WITH ALL OF US. I AM STILL IN THE LEARNING STAGES AND STRUGGLE WITH SOME TECHNIQUES, BUT YOUR LESSONS ARE MOST HELPFUL.
The wrist going up and down... well THAT's a movement I know very well... 😁
From playing guitar, off course! 😜 🎸
Don't blow it too hard ....
😆
This is a technique video which does not require playing. Please go to my other videos to see me play the violin, but this comment is inappropriate under this type of video.
I jam to the intro music every time. Your videos never fail me.
Very helpful thanks! Trying to play jigs faster~have made it to 85bpm but need to refine my technique to increase beyond that!
I call it, "Frankenstein" bowing. That is keeping your fore and upper arm straight and not hardly using your wrists. I have been at this for two years and it is a hard habit to break. If I consciously think about it when I am playing, the wrist gets looser. I will try your "Wall" exercises to try and improve. Thank you for your vids, Alison. They help.
Thank you ...you're an excellent teacher! You explain it all in great detail and understand what all us lesser players are up against.
Thank you Alison, this was a very helpful video. This was amazing 😉
you are the best violin teacher i havebever seen.thanks alison i am learning alot here in india just by watching your videos.God bless you alotb
even I never played Violin before or even have any of it, but this is perfect reference for me for 3D animation
really appreciated
Thank you so much! :) Definitely helping me feel confident that I can learn since I am sitting here watching and trying out these tips!!
I thanks you for these amazing tutorials, i have not touched my violin in about 3 years, i wanna start playing again and I came to you to start going over a review sorta speak so I can remember some of the things i forgotten over the years. I am happy it is free, because i don't play in the orchestra/ or have a private tutor at the moment. but now i actually have some sort of source to help me progress again. Thank you.
still I'm happy that people can learn from it.
You are a great teacher! Thank you - you explain it better than my teacher.
you've helped me so much with this. you're a very good and dedicated teacher who's interested in the student. thanks so much.
Thank you very much for uploading this technique... 💐👌🏻
That was SO helpful. I now understand it better thanks to you! :)
I really feel the wall trick helped me and it didn't seem to take that long.
John Zarn it alabout practire and playing by urself lol
Great lesson-off to practise on my fiddle now!
Hey top vidio I just came back from a lesson with my teacher who demonstrated the same bowing along with a similar lesson to your how to bow smoothly vidio I now 'get it'. It's a whole lot better than trying to saw the violin in two, excellent reinforcement after a private lesson with a teacher.
love your vids and thank you, but why the loud music at the start?
thehificlub tuntuntuntunun tuntuntuntunun
thehificlub I actually like it lol it’s fun
Thanks Alison! This was just what I needed for practising the Stronsay Wedding March this afternoon~great!😀
Thank you a lot for this lesson Miss Sparrow. I just started with the violin and before I played the guitar. I couldn’t figure out how to improve a faster playing on the violin but this lesson is really very helpful. Thank you :)
This was super helpful!!!! But is there an "exercise/stretching practice" to help move ur fingers faster or to help loosen up ur wrist or just like an exercise u can do with ur hands. I learned vibrato and it's easier because my teacher taught me to wave to my self like the same way u would hold ur instrument and then waving it to urself it helps loosen up ur wrists easily so like exercises like that. I'm going to try that on my right wrist now and see what it does! Thanks!
Great Video. I've actually been doing this wrong all along. The wall trick is helping. Thanks
I'm doing my leaving cert this year I live in Ireland and its the biggest exam of your life over here!! and im doing music in school and 50 percent of the exam is worth the practical where you have to play 6 pieces I just completed my grade 4 but im really no good at my violin and my teacher has no faith in me so you are basically my teacher im trying to learn as much as i can from your videos to help me improve could you give me any tips? And i also bought a keyboard for christmas and im learning that from your videos too! youre sooo talented
Megan Finlay Im not sure what i can say to help as I dont know anything about you? In order for me to advise you properly, I would have to see you. Sorry, i cant help, but all i can say is to ask your teacher for help and honestly, if they are more interested in telling you that they have no faith in you than trying to help you, you really need to consider getting a better teacher soon!
Thank you very much, was especially useful as my new teacher was trying me to play closer below the middle of the bow :) for fiddle work. Thank you so much! Rajeeve NZ
That was beautiful tip on playing semi quavers and so on. Thank you. I am one of your fan and online follower.
You are so beautyful and nice! ^^ Greetings from Russia!
I am Brazilian (I speak Portuguese) translation is not always good, but I learned a lot for your answers, both eutou seeing your videos I think I'm learning English Tambe, thank you my dear
Oh my gosh! I've been playing for all of 10 minutes and what a world of difference with your instructions. THank you!
Hariklia S welcome
great videos. as a long time 'closet player' just coming out and getting my stage feet, your stuff is really helpful. keep it up, I'll keep watching.
Could you make a video giving tips on EFFECTIVE practice and what are the time-wasters when practicing the violin? Could you also suggest how to be results-driven while practicing? How to make an hour of practice a quality hour of practice? Thanks.
+Frosty Summer That is a bloody FANTASTIC video idea! I have done one of those in the past, but I could do with updating it! Thank you!
Love your teaching style. Can't wait to check out all your videos! You made what others have tried to tell me make sense! I'm self-taught and all these minute techniques are SO challenging without a teacher. Thanks!
Thank you so much!!! very useful and well explained bowing with your wrist!!!😀
Great video. This is so difficult!!! Even after this video I still don’t manage 😢😫😭 Frustrating but will keep trying. Hopefully one day
Appreciate this, because bowing is something that needs to be well disciplined
Excellent video. Thank you.
can we please pay u somthing?? cus u are marvelusly greaaaaaaaaaaaaaat u teaching violin from an angels point of view ....amazing....Thank u..may god sweet up ur life and make u happy forever.
I can’t play fast and have never understood why until now! I’m off to practise and try to undo years of playing just with my arm
It was helpful when my girlfriend did tried. She said it was better view when you come closer to camera and was helpful. Anyway could you help in how to shift in chords more gracefully .
Thanks in advance.
i cant link things here as youtube wont let me, but if you look in the 'Subscribers Videos' playlist on the right hand side of my channel, there is a video in there about bow bouncing that may help and explain things better?
very good... terima kasih ... from indonesia
how you see me teach in veery video is how i actually teach in real life. The method i use is called the 'Alison Method' and so far its been successful so what you see in my vids are how i teach all the time if that makes sense?
slow practise at first and make sure its correct and consistent then gradually increase the speed...
Awesome...and most helpful videos...love the music at the end!!! Many thanks.
So effective....
I m still practicing....
Thanks... thanks a lot...
2nd time watching this particular video. Really helpful and and encouraging
I dont understand how this video has 51 dislikes 🤷🏼♀️🤔 I for one am glad for it! I can't wait to try this and see if I can isolate the movement. I know I'm bowing like my upper arm is spazzing out 🤣 and ya it is exhausting
The best way I describe "wrist movement" is watch the Karate Kid movie where Daniel learns to "paint the fence" Up..... Down.... Up...... Down..... complete with the follow through on each brush stroke. As the bow goes up/down your wrist should always be pushing or pulling the bow. Once you naturally do that, just stop the arm and use only the wrist for the "quick" bowing.
thank you so much for your teaching
that was really helpful - thank you.
Hi you teach violin very good You was born to be violin teacher Thank you so much I bright
understand how to play violin and next I would try to practice everyday. And this important
you so beautiful girl and very friendly when you teach be charming . say again Thank you so much.
It was quite useful as always. I get distracted by those gorgeous gray eyes though... I have a question, is it normal that my fingertips feel sored and stiff after some time playing?
I have been working on this for a few days and I keep having this problem I've never had with the bow before: my pinky finger keeps flying off. I have no idea what I am doing wrong except maybe there is a different way I should be holding it than I normally do, or maybe I'm moving my wrist wrong. I don't know if this is a common problem or if there are common causes of this. But I'd really like to fix that.
Becky Without seeing you, Im not sure what i can say to help as I dont really know whats going on. Its quite an advance movement, so it should be tried if you have been playing less than a year!
Any tips for bowing fast across strings? It would also be very helpful if you can show me how to move my fingers on the fingerboard fast as well.
Thank you so much Alison!
thank you! I hope it'll work
Sometimes I wish there was such thing as a left-handed violin! Sometimes it's tricky to move my right wrist since I'm left handed. But obviously a left handed violin would look crazy in an orchestra!
There are a few out there that are actually left handed violins.
@@TheOnlineViolinTutor Oh
Very informative and helpful as always Alison, Thank you. P.S do you have any links for spider like movement exercises for the wrist. Thank you Rajeeve NZ
so helpful thank you very much
Ty helped me so much
I've been practicing this all day today. A few questions. One, the bow be tilting a little bit whenever you do that movement? Two, what can you do to make it more of a reflex?
***** the bow will tilt naturally and it becomes a reflex if practiced enough.
Super helpful. Thank you!
I was like "wrist move" and it was like "NOOO! NOO! You can't make me" It refused to move. I even thought my brain was failing Maybe because I was practising for hours. I can't feel my arm any more. I'm one enthusiastic beginner. :/ lol XD You're a great teacher.
omg why is this so much harder than it looks!! D:
Thanks you make a lot of sense , sure appreciate you tutiledge
Welcome
I agree. Nice movements, but it will be difficult for me.
With the outfit colors, eye color, hair and makeup anyone else think she looks exactly like Alice from the American McGee's Alice game?
emmmm, I just cant move my wrist when I hold the bow, otherwise only two fingers to hold the bow if i try to move my wrist
Thank you! So helpful!
Great help love your tutorials.
I have a problem.I play Accolay violin concerto no.1 in A minor...In that concerto is part when I have to play spicatto,but it sounds like staccato.Can you,plase,make a video when you teaching spicatto? (sorry for my Englich,I;m from Serbia)
Yep, I just saw that. Thanks for everything, I will now go practice :)
So the wrist movement is up and down, you said finger flexibility was key as well. I noticed when you were showing what to do without the bow, your fingers were curling up as the wrist goes up, and then they stretch out as the wrist went down, I couldn't really tell what you were doing during bowing. Should my fingers extend on the way down, and curl up as the wrist goes up?
***** Not really. Its all about the wrist - thats the point. Let the wrist be flexible and the finger will go along for the ride.
You're a good teacher, and pretty, too! :)
I think I'm slowly falling in love with you Alison :-) I played Violin years & years ago and my main instument is lead guitar, Bass & Keyboards for over 40 years. Your lessons have helped me tremondously but I do have a few technical questions and I was wondering where the best place to ask them is ...
Lance Axeman ask questions under the videos please as that way they are all in one place and others can benefit also. Plus I constantly check all comments during the day to make sure everyone gets a reply to a question.
Your advice rocks!
I'm having a really hard time bowing fast while reducing arm movement. I'm practicing crystallize by lindsey stirling which should be fairly simple. My arm just looks super shaky when i play.
I would need to see you for something like this in order to help - sorry.
moving the fingers fast is simply down to practice. There are no tricks tips etc im afraid - knowing the music really really well so you can just concentrate on your fingers will help though. As for string crossing, Can you be a little more specific? Can you put it into context - so what i mean is, is there a particular piece you are playing where string crossing occurs that will help me better target the problem for you in a video? I understand the question, but its too general atm?
Hey Alison, I was wondering, I haven't found a video about the correct left hand posture. I feel I'm really squeezing the neck of the violin really hard with my thumb, don't know if this is correct or not. I also seem to find it really hard to keep my fingers on the strings for a long time, especially on the G string when using 3 or 4 fingers. Love the videos btw, learned a lot already!
Denis Debacker without seeing you im not sure what i can say to help, just try to loosen your grip a little? Takes practice and time - especially if you are new to all this,
thank you tremendously helpful..
