    Thanks for the replies -My question merely asks -Is instrumental or vocal music primarily about the ear or the eye?
    Sounds or touch? Aural Tactile or visual -which?, or is it a combination of all three and are they interdependent or not
    depending on the preferences and orientation of different pupils attention and engagement?

    Hello Julia, thank you for this great explanation. As someone coming from the guitar, I struggled with my left hand position as I learned for classical guitar not to reach over the fingerboard with the thumb, but to place the end of the thumb in the middle of the neck. I did see however that there are violinists doing that as well, so I thought for the violin this is normal as well. Now I know that resting the neck between thumb and fingerbase is correct as well which feels more natural also because the weight of the violin has to be supported as well.

    Watching this video I realized how lazy my left hand had become. Now I'm not stuck on the neck anymore. Also the stretching is a very good point. I have to go slow learning some new skills because I have to develop my flexibility but it can be done. Just slow and steady practice and the results will follow.

    I am intermidiate but realize i have ro reevaluate my hold. I get a kink in my neck from squeezing but when i relax my chin and shoulder , i want ti squeeze my thumb . Would u say you mostly hold up violin with left index finger joint. I feel my thumb for counter pressure but index holding up the violin

    • @Violinspiration
      @Violinspiration  6 місяців тому

      You hold up the violin with your chin and shoulder. Not your left hand. Your hand should be able to be let go and your violin should still be help with your chin and shoulder.

  • @minkymandy6065
    @minkymandy6065 Рік тому

    I notice that you bend your left thumb slightly & that it is quite high above the fingerboard. I do this to because it naturally curves this way. But I am told the thumb should be straight.

      Yes ,a tone is the gap of two semitones like C to D but a semitone is a closer step between E and F and between B and C. It's is not a sount. That is a pitch.

      @@Violinspiration So have blind people a musical learning advantage inasmuch as their
      intonation omits the visual route and corrects the pitch from auditory memory directly to tactile
      adjustment without the visual?
