“Quilting” or “stitching” is a powerful #violinpractice🎻 #practiceroom #practiceroutine I use when passages seem intimidating at first glance. The concept is simple…start with small groups and stitch them together into larger and larger groups until the entire passage is easy. Here’s an example of this #violinpractice in #spanishdance by #ukrainiancomposer #myroslavskoryk (mm 44-50) 5 videos: 1) One measure at a time - repeat each measure several times (I repeat 3 times in this video for brevity; however in a real #violinpractise session it will likely be a lot more) ~swipe left~ 2) Two measure groups overlapping (1+2, 2+3, 3+4, etc.) ~swipe left~ 3) Three measure groups overlapping (1+2+3, 3+4+5, 5+6+7, etc) ~swipe left~ 4) performance version - the practice process can be extended to create larger groups by I find if three measure at a time becomes easy I can usually play the entire passage easily. ~swipe left~ 5) Photo of mm 44-50. Note: If one measure at a time is too difficult at first, build smaller groups first - first two notes, second two notes, etc. #violinteacher #violinpedagogy #violintechnique #practiceroom #violinmasterclass #violinmaster #violinfun #violinguy #ukrainianclassicalmusic #ukrainianviolinist #ukrainianculture #spanishviolinist #мирославскорик #класичнамузика #українськамузика #скрипаль #violinsoloist (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcxVZPEufRZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#silentpractice #violinpractice Fingering silently with the left hand is a great way to develop left hand clarity. I can hear the dropping and lifting of fingers clearly. I’m more likely to notice if a note is late or early and fix it. Here’s an example of my practice in #carpathianrhapsody for #violinandpiano by #ukrainiancomposer #myroslavskoryk (measures 11-12) Three videos: 1) silent practice feeling and listening for the steadiness of the notes. ~swipe left~ 2) Performance version - notes are steady and even under the long slurs! ~swipe left~ 3) photo of excerpt #violin #violinist #violinteacher #skoryk #carpathian #hutsul #ukrainianclassicalmusic #ukrainianmusic #violinpedagogy #violintechnique #practiceviolin #violinpracticejournal #violinlesson #violintips #мирославскорик #карпатський #рапсодия #скрипаль #українськакультура (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcTCsKJL-u2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#violinpractice smooth #stringchange in #detache #fastplaying passages such as these #fastruns in #spanishdance by #ukrainiancomposer #myroslavskoryk I smooth out these runs/scales by anticipating the string crossing and playing the new string as a double stop with the old string. This trains me to begin the string crossings earlier so I will arrive on the new string with less impact thereby making the passage smooth and even. Three videos/pictures: 1) Practicing measure 90 ~swipe left~ 2) Practicing measure 94 ~swipe left~ 3) Picture of the relevant passages in the #violinpart #violinteacher #violinpedagogy #stringpedagogy #violinlessons #suzukiviolinteacher #violinskills #violintips #practiceviolin #practiceviolineveryday #skoryk #мирославскорик #испанскийтанец #испанскийтанец💃 #скрипаль #класическаямузыка #класичнамузика (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcAkThDL76V/?utm_medium=tumblr

I also have a sight reading piece that I need to brush up on too!

#violinpractice When learning #virtuosoviolinist runs/scales, I find it helpful to include accents as a sort of “scaffolding” to keep the notes organized. Accenting notes gives the left hand energy. The right hand gains awareness of bow direction. I systematically remove the accents as follows: 5 videos: 1) Accent twice per beat ~swipe left~ 2) Accent once per beat ~swipe left~ 3) Accent every two beats or twice per measure ~swipe left~ 4) Performance version - passage is played rubato; however the notes are organized and in control ~swipe left~ 5) Photograph of the opening passage of #carpathianrhapsody by #ukrainiancomposer #myroslavskoryk Note: In this particular passage, all accents are on up bows with the exception of the down bow on beat 4. Understanding this pattern helps me play this passage well. #violinpractise #practisepractise #practisepractisepractise #violinguy #ukrainianmusic #violinvirtuoso #violintips #practiceroom #practiseroom #violinteacher #violinmasterclass #ukrainianmusicians #ukrainianmusic #скрипка🎻 #скрипаль #українськамузика #violinclass #violinlessons #suzukiviolinteacher #violinteacher (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca1-HcCuJlF/?utm_medium=tumblr

When practicing #doublestops it’s often helpful to isolate the finger used most. In this passage of 6ths in #carpathianrhapsody by #myroslavskoryk the 2nd finger is used in almost every note, so I practice only the 2nd finger notes as follows: 3 videos: 1) Isolate 2nd finger as it is the most used finger in this passage. For notes not using a 2nd finger, I play the 3rd finger as this is the finger preceding the next use of the 2nd. ~swipe left~ 2) Passage is clean and easy. The other fingers are organized around the motion of the 2nd finger. ~swipe left~ 3) photo of the passage from #carpathianrhapsody🎻 Special message to for the many fine Russian musicians who follow me on Instagram and may not be getting the best news in Russia: Путин вторгся в Украину. они нападали на мирных жителей, больницы и школы. встаньте против своего диктатора и сопротивляйтесь этому зверству #violinpractice #practiceroom #violinteacher #violinclass #loveviolin #violinfun #ukrainianviolinist #ukrainianmusicians #slavaukraini🇺🇦 #скрипра #скрипач #скрипаль #українськийхудожник #украінськамузика #мирославскорик #suzukiviolinteacher #beautifulmusic #violinguy #practiceroomrevelations #violinstagram #istandwithukraine🇺🇦🙏🏻 (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CazcrN2O18L/?utm_medium=tumblr
