Thank you Roy for so selflessly sharing your knowledge with us all. You have a real talent for teaching and narrating music

[@roysonne]

Thank you in turn, Larry, for your appreciation.

[@tullochgorum6323]

Mr Sonne - you're a gifted communicator with a deep understanding of the music. Very helpful for those of us without access to a teacher of your insight.

[@roysonne]

+Tullochgorum Thanks and best wishes for violinistic fulfillment.

Beautiful explanation Roy, it is a magnificent study element that you share with the people who enjoy violin singing so much, and it is also wonderful study material, thank you very much, hugs and applause. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏻😉

[@roysonne]

Many thanks, Humberto. Your kind words mean a lot to me. Mejores saludos desde Pittsburgh

[@caveplayer9636]

This was so good, I love how your voice is soooo... I just cant explain it, but your violin playing feels soft and your explanation was so good. This is easily a 10/10 video.

[@roysonne]

Thank you, Cave Player.

Well done, Roy! Enjoyed this 9 years after the fact! Your old friend Bill A.

Обучаясь на методах русской школы музыки, для меня данные видео удивительны. Так сильно отличаются от нас, и так сильно мне нравятся!

[@annasnesar]

My gosh, So many details, I didn't know so much even when I studied in conservatoire! Thank you very much!

[@hei7586]

Seen and heard only this one video - and immediately subscribed! This is exactly the sort of explanation and introduction into music I needed so badly. Thank you soooo much for helping me to a better understanding of the structures, of the idea behind the notes and the beauty and possibilities that lie within!

[@roysonne]

Thank you, Heike. If you need more input please don't hesitate to PM me on Facebook.

[@hei7586]

@@roysonne Thank you very much for your kind offer! For the time being I am very happy with this general overviews and I have found a recorder teacher whom I can ask for details. But more of such teachings about specific categories of styles of music would be very welcome! My knowledge in music is, sad to say, very limited, but my wish to learn is big. :)

[@roysonne]

@@hei7586 Very best wishes to you in your musical journey.

[@traditionalirishmusic9550]

Extremely grateful for these videos I can’t afford a teacher and am an adult beginner, very old😱 but have played guitar for thirty five years and banjo as well as other instruments, violin is definitely the hardest thing I have ever attempted though. Thanks again for taking the time.

[@Dwarfs89]

Go on and be proud of yourself!

[@joeosborn123]

Many thanks to you, Parham myar, for your appreciative words. Best wishes for violinistic fulfillment.

[@josuegascot7858]

very nice! thanks!

[@vicentevictorica1678]

Thank you, Roy. All your Masterclasses I've seen are great. I really like the "feeling" approch you teach. At the end it is what music is all about: expressing emotions and feelings. (by the way, your website is down, maybe you need to check with your hosting company as this happens when there is some wrong setting or missing page)

[@snort455]

bravo!!!

[@cheesecurd100s]

I like the extra embellishments at the end

[@christopherpaulhughes1261]

That’s a very good video. Thank you.

[@mypianofavourites1635]

Nice Video Roy. Question, will your School of Music Artistry... Accept PAYPAL Fees. It Payment Protection for us Outside the USA??? I await your response.

[@plutoplanet4955]

Ты отличный учитель, но я не понимаю англ.яз(((

[@HamzaBinSaleem]

If you're violin teacher don't have a beard amd hair like him DO NOT trust him.

[@roysonne]
