    Thank so much for sharing! I have practiced speed bursts and similar exercises before, but never while actively scanning for the tension that might impede my performance. This is SO helpful!

    Thanks for helping address this important subject. More than holding the pick, and technicality, your more cerebral approach is an easy to adopt pathway to achieving picking speed proficiency. Gonna use on other endeavors as well!! Thanks Sheryl

    I would also suggest to work on a very, very slow practice. For example, just make sure you can play quarter notes with a metronome set at 40 and "lock in" with a very small movement/space between the pick and the string. This has to be done in all variations: one strings, two strings, only downstroke, only upstroke etc. and make it a every day routine, don't rush just learn to lock in with very slow movements. This will make you play more clean when trying to speed up. Benny Golson once said:"Smart is the guy who practice slow, smarter is the one who practice slower!"

    Relaxing and breathing, yes! I've noticed recently that if I "THINK" in cut time, or 1/4 time, that helps with relaxing. Feels like less for my brain to wig out about, it can even feel easier to play "in cut time." This is on piano, and I've noticed that my fingers actually function better when I back it off like that, while actually speeding up. Cray... :-)

      Yes, there are layers and circles of time that contain all the subdivisions. If you lock in with the longer phrase and "feel" the subdivisions, you can breathe through the phrasing.

    Very good points!
    But, if you would relax your picking hand more, play from the wrist making smaller movements, your speed will increase by a lot.

    • @kungfuaxe1
      @kungfuaxe1  Рік тому

      Yes and no- relav, YES, as that is the facilitator of Virtuosity, but not everyone has the exact same muscular and bone structure, so everyone needs to develop and find their own "fulcrum"- so mechanics are conditional: wrist vs. elbow

    • @Andreorsel
      @Andreorsel Рік тому

      @@kungfuaxe1 , as a teacher myself I do not agree with this.
      Until now I could teach all my students who where used to pick from the elbow how to pick from the wrist.
      It takes time for sure, but they all can do it now and all made significant progress in as well speed as accuracy.

    • @kungfuaxe1
      @kungfuaxe1  Рік тому

      @André Orsel that's great, I play from my elbow as tge fulcrum as I have small wrist bone structure- but as you wish! Relaxation is the most important aspect here, so as long as techniques facilitate that, it's all good

    • @Andreorsel
      @Andreorsel Рік тому

      @@kungfuaxe1 , i have and have had students with small hands/ bonestrucure, like for instance 6 year old kids, and they all learned how to play mostly from the wrist.
      Since you are talking about relaxation, a loose wrist is very important; everything has to be relaxed.
      There is this vid of Chris Thile (One of the greatest Mandoline players ever) on YT where he talks and shows how everything has to be relaxed and then mostly play from the wrist.
      And again, i totaly agree on your points about relaxation, but the way you angle your wrist and play from the elbow is a bit tensed to me.
      And speed isn’t just about relaxation, but also about minimizing your motions. Playing from the elbow is to big of a motion and you can’t control it as good opposed to playing from the wrist, especially at higher speeds.
      But, i like your playing and if you can play the things you want to play with your technique then all is good :-)
