    Much like Eddy, I also greatly struggled with learning upbow staccato ( • Can I Learn This Impos... . However, even if you don't come by this technique naturally, it is possible to learn it by following 1 simple exercise.

    My teacher recently signaled to me that i should try improving this wrist movement for staccatos and fast string transfers and it was really interesting to see how you explained it was the "secret" behind upbows. I'll check out if you already have, but it would be really interesting to see a video focused on this.

  • @srinitaaigaura
    @srinitaaigaura Год назад +9

    There are so many ways of doing it. I really liked your way of doing it and it has begun to work well for my hand. Alexander Shonert has another way doing it that doesn't need the finger action.
    Auer wrote of at least 4 ways I think. Wieniawksi who pioneered the fast staccato used the action starting from the upper arm only.
    The best staccato was probably the cellist Fuermann, which based on what I heard was much better than Heifetz, Primrose or Piatigorsky.

    • @MurphyMusicAcademy
      @MurphyMusicAcademy  Год назад +1

      Carl Flesch said that, when it comes to rapid upbow staccato, everyone will kind of have to find their own way.
      The "stiff-arm" variety that was pioneered by Wieniawski I genuinely think you're born with. I've read Auer's little book, but I don't remember him going over staccato

    Interesting, i have allways struggled with upbow staccato, but when i learned it my teacher actually explained as Eddy plays it, never mentioned this wrist motion at all. I should give it a try to see how it feels since i think I have a good wrist control to do it this way

    • @FCarraro1
      @FCarraro1 Год назад +1

      actually my teacher could do a very fast staccato with that pronation-supination, which is also like Flesch taught it. I find it impossible and I also use horizontal motion of the wrist instead

    • @MurphyMusicAcademy
      @MurphyMusicAcademy  Год назад +1

      I honestly have never seen that work. I'm certain the impulse likely comes from the arm, not a deliberate pronation and supination action. I'd like to see it in action.
      Where did you find Flesch teaching it this way? I've read his works and, though I'm certain I don't remember everything, I do distinctly remember him saying that, when it comes to rapid up-bow staccato, everyone has to find their own way of doing it.

    • @Claushanga

      @@MurphyMusicAcademy i agree that the movement comes from the arm. As I understood is that the pronation-supination is for stopping the movement of the arm, hence the resulting staccato articulation, but I'm no expert lol

    2:30 ironically when I do this technique wrist have nothing to do in any of this , or to be precise I would not prefer to focus on how to "move" my wrist. I will instead try to imagine to flow of force and try to draw out the "force" through my bow, and it works quite well to me. At least it allows me to do a stable staccato in Dvorak Cello Concerto.
    I think learning would be quite personal at some point. One work may not work on others and we have to learn to respect different learning strategies (as long as it is not obviously wrong).
    Also as a musician I feel not good to someone overcriticizing others in a video especially when others definitely are not planning for a toturial at the very beginning......

    Hi Tobias - I *think* I can do what that guy at 04:00 is doing! I *think* he's:
    • Using a sort of Russian bow hold (with orphaned pinky! 🤔). This enables a good but light coupling of the bow to the hand.
    • Using a *very* light hold of the bow, enabling it to move freely, yet guided.
    • Using a relaxed wrist, enabling the hand to fly about a bit.
    • Energizing the bow using fast pulses from the *biceps* (upper arm muscles).
    That seems to work for me, anyhow, and I think looks and sounds about the same as him. It feels to me that my biceps are doing all the work, and everything else is gently bobbing. It's the middle of the night where I am so I can't try it loudly at the moment. Having said that, I've tried it about at loudly as he does in the clip.
    I hope that's helpful (and isn't unhelpful!). 🙂

    • @JSB2500
      @JSB2500 Год назад +2

      I've experimented some more. I think his straight detached pinky could be deliberate - I seem to get a cleaner staccato doing that. The note starts are softened with my pinky on the stick (even lightly).

    • @JSB2500
      @JSB2500 Год назад +2

      Actually, I think there's more to it. I think it helps to *feel* the stiction between the bow hair and the string, using your middle finger, and work with it. More reliable!

    Can you go over the notes on the violin? The most part I'm confused about is for the 2nd finger, 3rd fingers and the 4th fingers, do you use just the second finger such as the "g" on the E string or do you use your first finger on the "f#" and the second finger on the "g" ?
    And for the 3rd finger "a" on the e string, doyou only have the 3rd finger on the "a" or do you have your first finger on the "f#", the second finger on the "g" and the third finger on the "a"?

    It’s Twoset Violin not a channel full of “how to” videos. It’s great that you showed people how to do up-bow staccato *differently* , but there’s nothing wrong with what Eddy did. Twoset just promotes practice in general while entertaining their viewers. No need to point out what they did “wrong”, since they just showed how *they* like to practice. Eddy also got better, but never did he say he mastered up-bow staccato. Hence another time they proved their point that you should practice.
    Edit: If they are really doing something wrong, they will probably get note from Ray Chen or Hilary Hahn, whom they know really well and can easily ask for tips.

    • @JoshuaLo2732
      @JoshuaLo2732 Год назад +2

      Not quite correct. Eddy was not doing a fine up now staccato, though it could sound like one, but it couldn’t develop any further, therefore learning the theory and physics behind each motion of different violin techniques (hard ones or easy ones) is extremely essential, for it would cause unnecessary stress during practice sessions or even during performances, basic concepts and foundations are something modern musicians lacks , therefore it is important for someone like Murphy to point out the flaws from musician , especially if they are influential figures, for their flaws would easily affect their viewers.

It seems like maybe just a bit of the wrist rotation mechanic you described as not liking which helps me a use me first finger to bite the string it. Works for me, gets the sound I want, and I most importantly it’s pain free for me.
