😲 I don't know anything about violin, but, especially for this to only be an introduction & demonstration, I'm blown away at the skill. How does this have a single dislike... Can't please everyone. I'm hoping there are subsequent parts; I'm hoping to hear ALL of the string articulations.
Absolutely stunning demonstration of all the various techniques on the violin using beloved examples from the repertoire. This video will stand the rest time. Thank you
Just learned to make strokes without sounding scratchy. It’s gonna take me ages just to learn the bow strokes of the violin. Violin is so beautiful and the ability to play violin so beautifully is nothing Sort of miracle and beauty… love how effortless he makes it look
Awesome. Can you please identify the violin being played, it has such a beautiful tone. Of course a violin cannot play by itself, congratulations to the excellent violinist!
Awesome video! There's one thing I'd like to point out tough as there's quite some confusion around it (here and in other videos on the internet), spiccato and sautillé are DIFFERENT techniques, in spiccato the bow bounces leaving the strings while in sautillé it's just the wood that is bouncing while the hairs remain mostly adherent to the strings, the way of playing them is therefore different, while spiccato is usually played in correspondence of the balance point of the bow to get an optimal sautillé you have to go a bit higher, near the middle of the bow.
All of the Players on the UA-cam videos who are demonstrating the different types of bowing techniques, never show the written manuscript, and what these techniques actually LOOK like on the music. For example, if detache is what the composer wanted, is the term written on the music, or is it just assumed that technique without the phrase markings? This information would be helpful for all beginners and students.
Awesome playing Eric! I’m trying to get all the articulations setup in my string libraries for composing on my DAW’s. I intend to print out my compositions for a live orchestra. I started on piano at 5, and added brass & guitar at a young age, but strings are my passion! And I’m still learning now that I have advanced tools. 😎🎹🎸🎺🎻🎤
So I was watching an anime called Nodame Cantabile and a character said, the concertmaster decides on the bowing. Does that mean that the concertmaster decides on which bow stroke technique is used for specific sections?
Hello XeeGen! Yes, the concertmaster decides on bowings. The conductor determines what kind of sound they are looking for, and will usually work with concert master or section leaders to determine which stroke will accomplish this.
I think that 31 persons who put thumbs down to this video are the worst types of human beings who need to be sent to the lowest depths of hell if ever a thing such existed. This is a fantastic video this guy is brilliant and I look forward to giving him a gift certificate to his most expensive and favorite restaurant.
Chef Tovia Gartenberg This guy play great, but it's no martelle stroke. Actually he played maracatto . It's close to martelle. Martelle must be played with stops after each stroke.
Thank you so much for this overview. I once heard somewhere online - most likely on UA-cam - a distinctive and refreshingly different orchestral arrangement of Pachelbel's Canon in D Major where all the strings - Violins and the Cellos - really aggressively "attacked" the beinning of each stroke, and the pizzicatos were also really accentuated. Sadly, I've never been able to find it again. Could such strokes have been Martelé/Collé and is there a name for a more "aggressive" start to a Martelé stroke ? I would love to hear that version again, and perhaps identifying the style could help to track it down. Can anyone suggest similar versions please ?
@@JohnsonString can I get the music parts to the short demonstrations and just practice them rather than the whole piece? Thanks Mrs Sheridan @StephenSheridan
What is he playing at 6:20? I always thought it was an aria from Carmen, but now I have doubts because I cannot find it anywhere. If anyone knows, please tell me!
Effortlessness is the correct word, it means without tension as most things on violin require. Absolute control as gained by learning how to do a given technique without tension (thus it looks "effortless" to execute it!
Was the Ricochet bowing that you demonstrated part of an actual classical piece or was it more of a warm up technique?? It was super awesome! I would love to learn how to do that! Do Pernambuco bows help with fast bowing like that?
I have few questions: 1. Why do you use little finger only at the frog? 2. Do you know any good "collection" of all bow techniques for violin? some book or preferably some online resources like web sites, videos and so on... I would like to have more informations about them and how to "train" them, thanks :)

Joseph Guida you do you dude!!!
So how you doing? You sticking to it
Do tell haha. I'm 46 and motivation is not natural.
Do you still practice?
have you become addicted yet??
0:34 that Paganini caught me by surprise
That bach for detache sounded amazing!!! So pure. It's like a guy playing in a bathroom with a strad.
This video is very usefull for composers, thank you so much!
exactly.
That's why I'm here :)
I'm a guitar player and I know nothing about violins, but I'm sure this guy is a monster!
He is indeed !
Me at 0:35: I give up on violin
Excellent video
Montexan I know right..😬
Montexan same
Yeah, pretty much the whole video was like that for me
me at 0:8..

He is really beautiful to watch play. Much passion and focus. beautiful.
The sound of the violin is brilliant 🥰

You've mastered these skills. CONGRATULATIONS . . . GREAT
That's what I thought too.
An "introduction" to violin strokes... what would it be if it were an advanced tutorial :)
That moto was faster than Perlman. Fast as Menuhin. Articulate also. Excellent violinist!
Awesome.
Can you please identify the violin being played, it has such a beautiful tone.

You are truly truly a virtuoso. Excellent. Just excellent.
Most excellent playing and presentation! Thank you!
The triple stops at the end are beautiful.
Chaconne by Bach.
Loved the whole demo Eric, but I especially like the Kreisler and Chaconne!!! Bravo well done!!
Fantastic playing and clear explanation!
An arranger's dream toolkit. Thanks
Excellent maestro.
wow insane skills
Thank you for sharing, in Brazil we seek to perfect and train good violinists ... videos like this inspire us !
Nice technique. Very useful video. I have been looking for something I could happily send my students. Thank you for this, Eric.

thank you , very fantastic and useful , this violinist is really a virtuoso , bravo !
Simple but full of useful information
Extremely well done. Bravo!

written on music
except for tremolo, staccato, and a few others, most are not written
(well and ofc legato)
This is awesome! I don't play but really appreciate the art and learning what goes in to learning it! Bravo
Thank you for the excellent instructional video.
What is his name ? What a sound!! What a playing!! a true master🙌😍
His name is Eric Silberger. We're so glad you enjoyed his playing!
amazing guy
Awesome playing Eric!
I’m trying to get all the articulations setup in my string libraries for composing on my DAW’s. I intend to print out my compositions for a live orchestra. I started on piano at 5, and added brass & guitar at a young age, but strings are my passion! And I’m still learning now that I have advanced tools. 😎🎹🎸🎺🎻🎤
Very helpful video thank you !!
Bravo!Excellent video!
Thank you.
What an awesome player.
Bravissimo!!!
He is pretty good. Impressed
Awesome specially when he plays materlé😮😮
Mr. Silberger. My hope is to quickly find video of your first days as this must also be special. July-17-2023✝️

Maybe "the down thumbers" are just people who ate frustrated that they are not (yet) able to do what this chap has managed
thankyou eric, greeting from bali island
That bridge's patina is very interesting
とても良いですね♪
the legato tune was beautiful
Chaconne by Bach.
There were two pieces used to demonstrate Legato. The 2nd was Bach Chaconne. I would like to know what the 1st one was (an aria from Carmen?).
Best explanation!
Thanks a lot. Very helpful.
Thank you very much...
Phenomenal player
muy bueno
Very useful, thank you
What's the name of the piece you demonstrated for technique Martele? Thank you, I found this tutorial helpful.
You're very welcome, we're happy it was helpful! The piece is the Praeludium from Praeludium and Allegro by Fritz Kreisler.
Chef Tovia Gartenberg This guy play great, but it's no martelle stroke. Actually he played maracatto . It's close to martelle. Martelle must be played with stops after each stroke.
I agree, it was not the martele, but marcato.
MUY BUEN VÍDEO
Very helpful. But if you would show the symbols assigned to each technique, then that would be marvelous.
Bravo
Perfect! Thanks a metric ton!
This guy is sooooooo coooool!
Great! ♥️
Thank you maestro!:)

Hello Daniel! It is the Praeludium from Praeludium and Allegro by Fritz Kreisler.
@@JohnsonString can I get the music parts to the short demonstrations and just practice them rather than the whole piece?
Thanks
Mrs Sheridan @StephenSheridan
What is he playing at 6:20? I always thought it was an aria from Carmen, but now I have doubts because I cannot find it anywhere. If anyone knows, please tell me!
You are correct! This is part of Franz Waxman's Carmen Fantasie based on Georges Bizet's opera!
greeting what piece do you play at 1:16
John Hernández Bach partita no.3 in E major prelude
Whats the name of the piece played during 1:10 - 1:47 please?
Hello! It's Partita for Violin Solo No. 3 in E, BWV 1006: 1. Preludio by J. S. Bach.
@@JohnsonString thank You!
What is the stroke denoted by a dot and a line above a note?
That Sautille.... was done so effortlessly... *Jealous*
Something tells me there's nothing effortless about it.

Was the Ricochet bowing that you demonstrated part of an actual classical piece or was it more of a warm up technique?? It was super awesome! I would love to learn how to do that! Do Pernambuco bows help with fast bowing like that?
Kyle Meinke that was Paganini's first caprice
very good examples, but was legato staccato missing or not?
I love this! Although, it's funny that they wrote that it's for beginners.
What is the piece he plays at 5 till 5 11
Hello! That is the Praeludium from the Praeludium and Allegro by Fritz Kreisler.
Song list????
Christopher McMahon yes please
What microphone(s) did you guys use and what violin is Mr. Silberger playing, if you don't mind sharing, thank you.
I have few questions: 1. Why do you use little finger only at the frog? 2. Do you know any good "collection" of all bow techniques for violin? some book or preferably some online resources like web sites, videos and so on...

The piece for Martelle I MUST KNOW SIR
Hello! It is the Preludium from Preludium and Allegro by Fritz Kreisler.
와 진짜 개오진다.... 잘하는 사람은 진짜 존~~~~~나 잘하는 악기가 바이올린이구나
what is the song played in the legato section?
awesome awesome awesome
what song is he playing for legato?
Coming here to get an idea of how a stroke of violin bow is supposed to sound like.
In chopin Etude op10 no1 the piece is supposed to sound like "strokes of a violin bow". Can I pick any or what ? it's awkward, can someone help ?
Legato
What was the piece in 1:30?
Cuál es la pieza del minuto 1:30?
Hello Yesica! It is Partita for Violin Solo No. 3 in E, BWV 1006: 1. Preludio by J. S. Bach.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'd like to know what piece is that he demonstrates for tremolo :) thanks
Hi, does anyone know the piece played at 0:01 in the little introduction? I haven't been able to find it in the comments yet. Thanks.
Bach Chaconne (the last movement of the 2nd partita for unaccompanied violin). Note that the video starts and ends with portions of this piece.
@@cwldoc4958 Thank you very much for the help with that. It's a haunting passage...
It would be great if in a small window you had the notation/s of each different articulation/bowing
3:04 WHAT EVEN?? This is literally what my teacher tells me NOT to do, when I do it accidentally, it's like "ok so to have a good technique you need to lose all these habits EXCEPT WHEN YOU START TO PLAY THE REALLY COMPLEX STUFF, THEN YOU HAVE TO LEARN ALL OF THEM AGAIN"
😊
I could hear to your collé all day🤡👌🏼✨️
Who is playing?
