Hi, I just came across your video and wanted to thank you for sharing. As an older learner that has gotten back into playing after 20 years break, I can say that this kind of practice had been invaluable especially when applied to my study of Bach partita 3-prelude. Has made a huge difference in my playing. Just takes time and patience. Thanks again👍
These tips are so helpful and right on time for my daughter's learning. She is working on shifts, second&third positions, and double stops. She is bored with the current set of finger practices. Definitely I will watch this video again with her on weekend.
As a double bass player, the fingers snapping into place bit is really great! We don’t develop this technique as well as other stringed instruments but it’s so helpful for when we really need it given the thickness of our strings and the weight required to hold them down. Thanks for practicing tips!
Could you do a video about your experiences with performing and stage fright, so practice room vs stage, basically everything regarding this topic, as i struggle a lot with this and really makes me think about continuing to study this instrument. I really adore practicing but performing always is a big one for me. :)
That was optimal advice!👌 [Ideally, students with not only sufficient raw physiologic and cognitive talent but also with emotional keeness as well as stabiliy will apply it.]
These tips are fire!! 🔥 What you refer to as “punctuated practice” I call “rhythms,” however, it’s my go-to for learning anything on a short timeline. And the snapping finger action is rarely discussed-thank you for bringing it up and sharing your knowledge!
Can you make a video on how to be musically expressive in different repertoire? I am currently working on the Bruch Concerto in g minor. Would appreciate help on that concerto.
nice bow contact point and precisely to the point！ really glad I found your channel！ let‘s learn！ I definitely want to improve to get to the uktimate level of engineering violinist， maybe the one and only can play the “Last Rose”！ Thanks for your show of virtuosity！
What I like about slow practice is that you can take it down to the speed at which you are totally relaxed ie. this is boringly easy, and then very gradually ramp it up, so you eventually get to where you want to be, with patience, but without ramping up the tension that would otherwise potentially come from trying to play fast....makes a huge difference when learning a piece. Also breaking things down into overlapping groups that are small enough to be easily manageable and gradually adding in one more note at a time until you can do the bigger groups.
Dear Sumina, could You please say one day something about the speed of the bow, how it impacts the musical side of violin playing, and how to practice it? Many warm greeting!
Very interesting! Playing brass instrument (Horn), I never thought about the idea. I guess, to get a sound and articulation right, there is hardly a way to slow down them (motion-wise) in slower tempo. The air distribution, however, is different. Thank you, Sumina! Even for not string instruments these tips are widely used or can be a great food for thinking.

Love't, Fantastic and very helpful, but in practice, very difficult, do you want to demonstrate the bow how is it? legetto, and staccato, or how is it? waiting for note describing bow movement. Grateful.
Thankyou for this Just bought my first violin after playing guitar and saxophone for years . Definitely going to be following these lessons .

I have followed you since the very first day of youtubing. No matter what the talent you got in violin, I can see a young, sincere and friendly personality sparks from the way you present to us. You inspire me to be a blogger, and I have a writing talking about you! Suprise!!! Keep it up Stumina, even though sometimes you got down on your mood, rest asure, we re fans always there for you. ☺️☺️☺️
Hello. Thank you for the video. Lots of good tips here. I recognized you from a video of you demonstrating a violin in the UK I look forward to following you on this channel! Have a great day!
I have a question? When should you use slow reactive practice? Or is it a rule of thumb to always use it? And for punctuated practice I have the same question When should you use that type of practice? I imagine for scales it would be very beneficial but what about pieces? Cause you’d be practicing at a different rhythm than the actual piece or Etude or whatever you’re playing
Hi Sumina: it is very helpful. I understand your reason for not slowing down the finger motion, but I do think you need to slow down the shifting motion to get the coordination right when you speed up.
OMG thank you so much for making and uploading this video, I really really love this (also I love you too)... Your exercises and explanation was perfect that I think your much better than other famous college professors in whole wide world..(so efficent tips..♡) I will practice my etitudes just like your way!!!
So cute your Japanese dolls in the background. We called the punctuated practice bumpy rhythm in school. I also like to move my fingers very deliberately and let them snap in place. One thing that worked for me as a wind player was to slow down the runs and tongue staccato each not while moving each finger deliberately. University was good times.
What I find really challenging on slow practice is the different bow distribution. At least if you want to get some kind of sound out of your instrument. You need another contact point, so it's hard to switch to the correct one while playing fast again (at least for me...)
Thank you so much for all the advices, Sumina! Realty helped me a lot especially when I'm self-teaching now in this difficult situation. Thanks for sharing! Sending greetings from Malaysia 🇲🇾 ~~ 🤗💞🌻
Thank you very much for such interesting advice, Sumina! I’ll definitely try the “snapping” technique. May I ask you which strings do you use in this video? You’re great and hope you the best! ☺️
Hello Sumina, first of all. Thanks to take your time for the violín world, in my particular case i have this kind of advise when i was 19. I start at 4 years old but not with this advises. Now i have 39 and i teach like you, i watch that some pupiles react very good but anothers one not. Do you think is for some particular human physical or nervios sistem problem? Thanks all of. From Spain.😊
That can't be estimated with time - if done correctly, slow practice should take significantly shorter than if done inattentively! Your teacher will be able to give you better guidance in when to move on from slow practice within a practice session 😌

I'm a pianist but these advices are great for all kind of instruments
Totally agree, my dad is a pianist/educator and he applies these techniques as well 🤫
Agree !!
As a cellist, I find these tips quite interesting, I'll try too 😊
Never thought about the "snapping" your fingers fast!!! Can't wait to try it, see how it works. Thank you for the advice, and for the exercises!!!
Please do try it! It is a game changer in my experience ☺️
I tried it for the first time today, and it's really helped with allowing my fingers to play at faster tempos tysm

Can you make a video on how to be musically expressive in different repertoire? I am currently working on the Bruch Concerto in g minor. Would appreciate help on that concerto.
Thank you now I know what to do and not to do!❤❤❤
Love these beginning friendly tutorials! Would like more of this 😊 thanks so much Sumina!
Very, very helpful! I especially like the way you communicate and express the lesson!!! Thank you!
nice bow contact point and precisely to the point！ really glad I found your channel！ let‘s learn！ I definitely want to improve to get to the uktimate level of engineering violinist， maybe the one and only can play the “Last Rose”！ Thanks for your show of virtuosity！
I need to learn the violin for our string class, and now I fell in love with it. Thank you so much for your advice
Can you make a video about double stops(thirds especially)? Would be really useful for me(currently struggling on Bruch 3rd Movement).
Noted! Double stops have so much to reveal - will definitely make a video on it sometime soon 👍🏼
@@SuminaStuder1 yes please, I would appreciate it too

Hi Sumina: it is very helpful. I understand your reason for not slowing down the finger motion, but I do think you need to slow down the shifting motion to get the coordination right when you speed up.
Thank you! Yes, shifting is a whole hurdle itself and needs to have its own foundation set for accuracy, before practicing the reactive aspect of it 😌
Thank you for your videos. They are very usefull!!!
these videos are life-saviors 💙💙💙💙💙💙
This is such good advice! I’m definitely gonna try tomorrow, thank you!!🎻

Hi.
I am from India. Really like 👍 your video content.
I am begginer. Which brand violin should I purchase?
Thanks
Thank you so much! May I ask, how much (roughly) of your time practicing per day is spent working slowly?
That can't be estimated with time - if done correctly, slow practice should take significantly shorter than if done inattentively! Your teacher will be able to give you better guidance in when to move on from slow practice within a practice session 😌

Btw, I'm practicing tone production and want to have the same contact point throughout a phrase.
