You, sir, you saved me from my terribly agonising teacher. You’re the best! Almost everything that I’ve learnt has come from you. I’ll never thank you enough. Have a great day, dear sir.
I used to fear second position as a child, which made me quit the violin. Thirty years later thank you for explaining it to me much better than my teacher did ❤️
yes, I noticed too that violin teachers treat positions as an unobtainable skill that can only be reached by advanced players. It's a huge mistake, position shifting should be within your very first few lessons, they are much easier than portrayed. Any chance of picking up your violin again?
I had no idea it was so simple, I knew it had to be, there was no reason for it to be as difficult as I was taught! You sir are a God send, you are amazing, thank you!
I was stressing out because I wasn’t able to find a good video tutorial on how to play 2nd position. Then, I stumbled upon your video and everything finally made sense. Thank you for keeping your lectures simple and not assuming we know everything like other videos did.
Thank you for helping me get rid of the fear of making wrong notes ,I seriously can't thank you enough your teaching is amazing !! You save lives with this channel!
As a beginner violin player, this is by far the best series of videos on learning the basics of this beautiful instrument. Your teaching has helped me a lot !! Thank you!! You are the best!!
Thank you so so much you don’t know how much of a blessing it was to find your amazingly helpful video. I have been trying to learn how to shift on my own since I cannot currently afford private lessons, and this is the first video that actually helped! I am so grateful so I subbed :)
I am speechless. You are a great teacher. You are blessed with exceptional skills and ability to explain to the point. Keep up the great work. I picked up violin in my middle age to pass time. You made me see the light and direction. I am greatful to you. Keep up the great work. Thank you
Thank you so much for this! I've always found reading sheet music and the places of the notes very difficult but bc of your videos, it's wayyy easier now cs I understand whats going on on the sheet music. Once again, thank youu!!
This is harder than it looks, yet you explained what I didn't understand. I'll be stuck here for awhile, but, I understand finger positions now for 2nd position. Thank you!
Literally I spend so much money on useless private teachers and they didn't tell me about how understand notes. Words cannot describe how thankful I am to you. You saved me a lot of my nerves and time. Million thanks. Have a good day.
Thanks for your video ! God bless you! I hope that you'll do all these best video again you really make me to have more understand from my violin teacher lol I'm sure that you'll get the best result from what you've been uploaded💟
please make more videos like this. i like your teaching style and the way the video is made for complete beginners. i dnt even have a violin yet but ive been doing a TON of research on it and i must say i can't wait to get mine. so in the mean time please make more videos like this so when i do get my instrument ill have an easy way to learn the notes/ positions cuzz imo its very confusing for me in general. but your very simplistic which i like. thank you
thank you, I will do the 3rd position for sure! I am just caught up with work and don't have much time lately but you will be very busy learning these 2 so by the time you got these, the next vid will be up!
@@measurebymeasure3605 thats ok. im busy too with life and all that. all i ask is that u dnt stop. i played guitar on and off 4 like 5 years but for some reason i want to learn violin and piano. it feels like instinct almost. i cant rlly explain it any better lol thank u for the reply kind sir
playing guitar helps a lot with understanding the violin, and playing piano helps understand music in general, I too played guitar back in the day and still do occasionally. No matter what your goals are music will always be your friend, I'd love to hear you playing something.
@@measurebymeasure3605 honestly i just learned to play guitar and follow tabs i never rlly understood the music theory in general. watching your videos rlly do help out a lot.
yes, that's the problem with guitar, depending on the type of music you play sometimes you don't need music theory at all and still be insanely good at it, but for piano and violin it's definitely highly recommended. Not necessarily a must, but it will make your playing much easier in the long run.
Hi, thank you so much for your videos. I am a beginner and by far you have the best way of showing the notes and speaking about them that I can understand :) I notice that the link you have for your website no longer works, do you have a new website that you can post?

Perfect video for me to kickstart. Please do you have music sheet for this exercise. It will be great as my tutor has asked me to start learning 2nd position. Many thanks
great video.. but I'm confused.. do electric violins have different notes? and is there more of a tone placement tip? I found the stickers with tones in the e-shop, but the notes are different than in the video.. I am a total self-taught.. and bought an electric violin.
Thank you so much for this, it’s very helpful! It was two years ago that you posted first position, will it take the same amount of time until we get 3rd position?
haha no! I will work on it soon. I got very little spare time, that's why it takes me forever. I wish I could do this for a living. Too many people have asked for 3rd position so I guess I will have to work on it this weekend.
@@measurebymeasure3605 I mean no rush! Please take your time, we're very grateful for these videos, I haven't even finish understanding 2nd position yet! Thank you for your hard work!
@@measurebymeasure3605 anything geared toward beginners and helping us get to the intermediate level would be great. You present things in a very straightforward, thorough, and thoughtful way. Perfect for beginners! Also, your song videos (like, “The Entertainer”) might be a little advanced for some of us, but they give us beginners something to aspire to. 😊 Thanks for the response!
@@rosepetalsupcycle Yes, I thought exactly the same with the entertainer! funny you should say that and thank you, I will concentrate in more beginner stuff!
Any scale can be your first one. Which is the easiest? It depends on the instrument. In Violin a G Major scale is popular because that is the lowest note you can play and start with. A C Major is popular on piano because it's all white keys. But the basic principle of ANY scale is the same, it's all about steps and half steps. If you understand 1 you understand them all, no matter what scale you start with.
Best thing to do is to have a violin shop do it. If that's not possible you can do it yourself. You can buy violin stickers online or just use tape. Make sure you place it in the right spot! And with time and practice they may move, so peel them off and put new ones on
I bought the suzuki books and learned from those, they concentrate more on ear playing though, I took the note reading approach. It's a wonderful series with great songs in it, i definitely do recommend it!
No need to fear trust God Bless You Too. Violin 🎻 Solo Practice Tomorrow During This Saturday Night Live Violin Study Music Program Meeting TMR During this Saturday Night Live Violin 🎻 Solo Arrangement Tomorrow ❤️❤️❤️
Sir, I understand very little, musically speaking, does the 2nd position mean the next octave up? I find higher mathematics easier to understand than some of these concepts. What is the point of 1st, 2nd and third positions? Even though I am lost so far, I do appreciate your videos.
The position changes are how high up you go on the neck of the violin. Each position is marked by moving a finger one note up. (1st position starts with your index on the A note on the G-string, second position you move your index finger to the next note the B-Note on the G-String, and so on) You use position changes for 1) reaching higher notes and 2) certain musical passages are easier to play on a higher position because there is a lot of string crossing going on in first. All my videos are played in first position and I'd advise you to learn the first position, once you do position changes will make more sense.
don't at first. concentrate more on playing the notes in tune. Vibrato will do more harm than good at the beginning. Once you get good enough, you will figure out vibrato
what do you mean by skipping? If it is changing positions then your finger pattern changes depending on the scale you're playing. The most important thing is to know the notes on your fingerboard, do not try to memorize finger patterns for each position, you will make yourself crazy! Just know where the natural C is on the low G string for example and think about that C being a C no matter what finger you use to play it
that's a very good question. Some music sheet tell you by putting a roman numeral on top of the note, but when you get more advanced, you choose your own positions and play whatever makes the passage more comfortable. There is no absolute set rule on which note has to be played in which position. If you're playing beginner pieces, they are all in 1st position.
14 in total. You don't need to go further than 3rd for most music though, learning 4 5 and 6 will get you to more of a solo violin level and if you're very advanced you play the rest, very few violin players know these positions though.
Yes, I'll be working on it. My plan is to do all the way up to 4rth Position, but please have some patience, it takes me FOREVER to make these videos. It'll be up soon!
How do I know which position a note is in? For example when I see a C, how do I know if it is second position so I use my second finger on the G string or if it is third position and I use my first finger on the G string?
good question. Usually in sheet music for violin it will tell you which finger to use when there is a position change. If there is nothing, it usually is in 1st. But you can play it anyway you want it in whatever position makes it more comfortable or playable for you, unless otherwise indicated on the sheet
Measure By Measure thank you for the reply :) So very basically, it doesn't really matter how I play the note as long as it is the note on the sheet (unless otherwise indicated)? Sorry, I'm very new to violins and playing it 🙈
@@AnjaWhateley yes that is exactly right. you will see this when you play canon in D for example there is a passage that is much more easily played in 2nd position because in first you'd be constantly jumping strings. The more you play the more sense this will make to you. For now don't worry about it too much and just concentrate on learning the notes on your fingerboard. THAT is key.
there are 14 positions in total. As a beginner you should learn first position, when you're more advanced add 2nd and 3rd to it. As an intermediate player learn 4rth and maybe 5th and if you're advanced you play up to 8th. The rest is pretty much only for virtuoso violin players but most violin music can be played within the first 3 or 4 positions.

How to know if the pieces we play is first position or second... I'm confused
Is C Major the first scale that a beginner should learn? A lot of teachers start with the A Major but I don’t really understand why.
Any scale can be your first one. Which is the easiest? It depends on the instrument. In Violin a G Major scale is popular because that is the lowest note you can play and start with. A C Major is popular on piano because it's all white keys.
But the basic principle of ANY scale is the same, it's all about steps and half steps. If you understand 1 you understand them all, no matter what scale you start with.
Hello I am a beginner as well I just finished watching the other video before this one wondering Where do I get the stickers from??
Best thing to do is to have a violin shop do it. If that's not possible you can do it yourself. You can buy violin stickers online or just use tape. Make sure you place it in the right spot!
And with time and practice they may move, so peel them off and put new ones on
good things happen to those who are a bit patient
I couldn't agree more my friend.
