Hello, my name is Mimi and I’m just someone who really loves playing the violin!
For so many years, I’ve been thinking about starting RUclips, but my intensely deep rooted
fear of the cameras and all things related to it have been holding me back...all the way up until about five weeks ago, on a bright and cheery Sunday morning, when I woke up and decided, today is the day, I’m just going to start. So I did! and here I am, uploading this video!
A little background about what I am planning to do on this channel:
I love learning music, and there’s so much that I haven’t been able to learn due to many different reasons. Now, I’ve come to a point where I really want to pursue filling up my repertoire shelf, and I thought, why not document this process for as long as I can and share it, because I’ve noticed that when I watch other musicians practicing or performing online, I become more motivated and inspired, and that’s a pretty nice thing to spread around.
To make this easier to follow, I’ve decided to organize the uploads as projects. For instance, to start all of this off, I’ve decided to go for the 24 Paganini caprices. For this project in particular, I’m setting a one week time frame per caprice, in other words, one caprice per week, and what I’m hoping for is to have the caprice memorized and playable at a reasonable performing tempo, and most importantly, to focus on PROGRESS rather than PERFECTION. This last point is very important, because the fear of not being good enough has time and time again prevented me from doing things I really want to do, and this has in a way limited my capacity as a musician.
Practically speaking, I’m going to document each day, starting with a read through, and then show bits of me practicing which will then be compiled into a video of the 7 days to share with you. I’ll also be sharing my thoughts, and nothing about my learning process will be edited at all because the idea is to acknowledge things as they are. The only thing I have added is some reverb because the acoustic in my apartment is terrible, and this is the only way I won’t go crazy listening to myself.
I have no idea how any of this will turn out. I’m not thinking about whether or not this is an ambitious project or if I’m in way over my head. I’m just going to try my best to commit and see what comes from it and go from there.
As I’m really a beginner about video creation, I’d love to hear your feedback, comments, opinions, criticisms, and of course, any questions, which can all be shared via the comment section down below.
And lastly, for anyone wondering why on earth would I go for the 24 caprices, it's because this project is also something of a little present for my parents, my most avid and loving supporters, who have been asking me to record the 24 caprices ever since I was a kid. I'm not sure how serious they were every time they'd bring it up, but I thought this would make them happy. Love you tons, mom and dad!
Thanks for your time, and I hope you have a fantastic day!
Virtual hugs,
Mimi

I’m a huge fan of this video… not only did it already sound good SIGHTREADING… but I loved how you showed us every detail of your practice in this caprice! I will say that everyone thinks that this is the easiest one (even though it really is not) but it makes it difficult because that means the level of playing this caprice has to be extremely high. Great job♥️
Thanks for the sweet comment 🥹
I had a lot of fun with this caprice :) I agree with you, it’s not necessarily the “easiest” one at all haha
Cheers to happy practicing!!
GO MIMI GO MIMI
your videos are great, truly giving me new fingerings references other than mine.
I'm really glad you could find some new alternatives! I love trying out new fingerings :)
👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️🥰
Please show Finger position in the music sheet. That will help us to learn from you. Thank you.
Over half-way through! Or it would be if not for the Paganiniana ;-)
Oh, I totally forgot about that, should I include it at the end after the 24th caprice? Hahahaha
@@doremeems YESSSSSS. After all that, it will be a cakewalk ;-)
Consider it done!!! Hahahaha 🤣
Instead of playing double stops. First play the tube on one string. Then the identical mote 9n the other string. And then both together as written by Paganini.
