Thanks for this! I'm 75 & just got my first violin. these videos are a must for me before attempting to play.
Amazing! Welcome to the community!
Thanks for this vedio! As a mom who has a kid is learning violin, your vedios are really helpful to me. Based on my experience, once they are used to wrong postures, it will take lots "effort" to make it right. 😅
That is exactly how my teacher teaches me finger placement. Great video!
Thanks Eric. No one ever told me about using the side of the finger tips instead of the middle.
Thank you so much for your instructive videos. When I try to place the left part of the finger on the string, I always end up "touching" the string to the right with the rest of the finger which is not ideal when I want to play an empty E string with still the fingers placed on the A string. I am struggling a lot with this (but as I am a beginner, I'm struggling with almost everything as we can expect...) Any advice on how to avoid touching the string to the right? Thank you!
Thank you so much ❤
Thanks Eric. you are a gifted teacher! Does the same "left side" finger tip placement apply to the other strings?
Thank you! A lot of the times, yes. But, it also depends on the piece you’re playing so it could vary.
I can't often do straight 4th.
When you were playing the A string it looked like your finger were also touching the E string. I'm not sure if it was but if so does it matter? Thank you.
