    I was just looking for videos to help me learn how to better train my octaves the other day, so this video really is perfect timing. You present a method that I have never seen before, but I am eager to try it out! Octaves are a technique that I am really looking to incorporate more into my daily practice because they are currently one of my weakest skills.

    Wow! Richard, thanks for sharing this "live" in concert performance of yours. As a basic-to-intermediate violinist who picked up learning the instrument in the last 2 years, sometimes when I am practising taught techniques, I am beginning to hear some beautiful undertones (resonance) on my violin - making me feel as if the instrument is about to come alive! So much effort really goes into playing the violin - such an amazing, mysterious and yet beautiful instrument. Bravo to you Richard, and many thanks for your very helpful UA-cam videos.

    I love scales and arpeggios, especially on the piano. I started violin 16 years ago when I was 52 and am a bit lackadaisical on my scale practice. I find 4 notes to a bow really challenging! I loved your video!!!

    People actually said that you can't play a scale in tune? Did they mean you specifically, or did they mean that in general its impossible to play a scale in tune (perfectly) with the nature of both the violin and our equal tempered system? If they meant you specifically I'd think a professional musician with the Philadelphia Orchestra would likely be better than the average comment-writer on UA-cam. I love your ear training examples! As an elementary school music teacher, we have to constantly adjust our perception of what exactly is an A or Bb . I feel horrible for those with perfect pitch! Keep doing what you're doing!

    Very cool the analogous stories, like the relationship of Rocky and Mickey, and your incredible support from your dad. And Philly being the common playground😁 With both protagonists playing role of an underdog, the only difference is you join the Philadelphia orch, but Rocky loses to Apollo Creed (if I recall correctly). Such a cool tribute to your dad, Rich!

    The MOST important thing which is only briefly mentioned at 3:57 is you have to remove pressure from your index finger while you vibrate, you can put a bit of pressure back when you're playing without vibrato but without this tip you will shake your violin like mad.

    Important concept explained very well! I remember when I first listened deeply to Kreisler's playing and it really drove the point home that impulse vibrato is key to that sort of "speaking" sound that musicians like he and Casals had.

    Excellent method - Thank you. However on my particular violin unless I press pretty hard I end up sliding rather than anchoring the fingers. I have played other fiddles that have fingerboards with more "grip". I suffer from quite slippery fingers. Any suggestions?
