    I"ve seen some pretty crazy looking bow holds as well. It only REALLY matters if you are playing classical violin literature where the kind of articulation requires super control of the bow. Not to disparage fiddle-style at all, but there is more leeway with the bow hold.

    Yes, ma'am, this "has been a very enlightening and interesting" vid. I've always known there was more to bowing than what I was taught as a child (never had private lessons on violin). I currently play for a church orchestra, and these instructs are gonna be so very helpful. Speaking of private lessons, I am taking drum lessons, and the talk of all that finger flexibility and use, reminds me of what my instructor is teaching me with the drum sticks. Thanks. Kevin.

    Fascinating analysis and explanation of why the fingers and hand do what they do... Will share with the occupational therapist who is helping me with a right hand ligament injury.
    (Tip of "mildly disjointed" index finger wants to touch tip of ring finger when I close my hand; middle finger wants to be on top or under ring finger. The most pinching strength is between thumb and ring middle finger supported by ring finger. Have many strengthening exercises and prognosis of a year recovery, complicated by some arthritis in index knuckle before the crushing injury.)

  • @ftostado
    @ftostado 11 лет назад +1

    thank you very much I studied violin two years but quit because the teacher told me that the right hand should be firm and should not move his fingers, had to hold strong fingers on the bow, but I felt it was better to have flexibility in the fingers and wrist. but always corrected me and ended tense .... more than 5 months ago I've seen your videos and also the Proferssorv videos and learned more than two years in school .....

    @Yestyn2084 11 лет назад

    Thanks for the lesson. I was wondering what your opinion is on variations to the bow grip. I just started taking private lessons, and my teacher said that I should be making the circle with my thumb and first finger. All of the information about finger motion still applies the hold is just a bit different. I am actually finding it easier to do techniques like spiccoto with this hold. Have you ever suggested and different bow hold to somebody?

    @violinlab  11 лет назад +1

    I don't have any experience with this style of bow grip. Is this the Russian style? If it's working for you then that's great. My problem with the thumb across from 3rd finger is that the hand isn't as balanced, and there's less leverage with the index finger for sustaining forte dynamics at the tip.

  • @Yestyn2084
    @Yestyn2084 11 лет назад

    No it is not the Russian style.The first finger is across from the thum. Although after working with it for a few weeks, I have moved my first finger up a little bit toward the tip. So now my thumb is not across from any finger. By the way, sorry I did not write back for a few weeks, I have been very busy. I do however have one more question. When doing vibrato, some times my fingers attach to the strings and I can get a nice wide arm vibrato. But some times my fingers and thumb wont stick to

  • @MagicalMusic34
    @MagicalMusic34 10 лет назад

    Hi Beth, wondering if you have any advice that could help me.
    I am a violinist of about three years. I have cerebral Palsy though, which mainly affects my right side. This makes bowing properly quite difficult as I don't have the flexibility in my fingers for subtle changes in the bow. Is there a way I could possibly work around that? Also what specifically is the role of the wrist when bowing? I can push my arm out, but it takes a little while for my wrist to follow suit. Is that something I just have to spend most of my violin career (hopefully) strengthening? Love your videos btw.
    P.s, I do have a teacher, just wanted another opinion!
