23 more to go! Kidding, but it would actually be useful to have same kind of video for other common scales. I don't know if it's a bit redundant. This video is enough to get a feeling for it even if you go to a different scale. I like this demo because it doesn't focus so much on really fast brilliant tempos but is still very well played.
Haha yeah making one for each scale is definitely a possibility. I was thinking this one could be used to get a sense of the progression which would then be applicable to all the other scales. I have some other videos in the works that I think will be more immediately helpful but this is the 2nd request I’ve gotten to make one for every scale. If a few more come in, I’ll definitely bump it up the priority list. 👍
You might have mentioned somewhere but is there a reason you do thirds from the lower number of the finger? I have been playing from the lower note which seems to be normal practice and we get told that the lower note gets more emphasis generally. Thanks
Good question. I've actually gone back and forth on this one. You're right that the lower note should get more emphasis and generally it's also the more difficult one to hear clearly. If you choose to do the lower note first, I think it makes it a little easier to hear and also a little easier to reach back for larger intervals. In general I adopt the rule of thumb to set almost all chords with the lower number finger first. I do this because it is easier to adjust higher number fingers once lower number fingers are down rather than vice versa. Give it a try and I think you'll feel what I'm talking about. This is the order of operations I generally default to in pieces generally and especially in Bach fugues. With thirds specifically I actually think it's useful to practice them both ways, but I tend to start with lower finger first unless the student has very small hands. Hope that helps.
Hey! I’m assuming you just mean add tags so you can easily jump to what part of the scale you need. Is that what you meant? That is definitely coming. Let me know if you meant something else.
@@priceviolinacademy I meant that you may cut them into individual video and each video is a scale. Each scale could repeat several times. It will be helpful for the beginners if the scale is played without vibrato. Adding the tags is another option for sure. Thanks
Yes i do. 👍 Keep an eye out for the channel intro video and you can learn more about what I do. I perform and teach professionally but my teaching is what I’m most passionate about.
@@doggoei984 Very rarely at this point. Mostly just teach from my home and perform locally. Every once in a while I’ll take a gig that requires some travel.
May i ask which tones you play in sequence on arpeggios routine? You start by g major and how is it moving? Thank you so much for the video, wish you health!
Tricky to answer this in a comment. The easiest way is probably to just grab Barbara Barber’s scale book for advanced violinists. It’s a pretty standard arpeggio progression and the book will help you out long term so you’ve got all the stuff together conveniently. 👍

I aspire to play half as good as you!! ❤🎻
Thanks Amy! Hope this helps.

Could you please cut them into individual scale? Thank you. It is helpful.

Do you teach violin as your career? Keep up the good work!
Yes i do. 👍 Keep an eye out for the channel intro video and you can learn more about what I do. I perform and teach professionally but my teaching is what I’m most passionate about.
@@priceviolinacademy Cool! Do you go on tour?
