Bowing Technique : Sautille (Fast Bouncing Bow)

[@dev27o8]

This is a really helpful video. I am preparing sautielle bowing for Csárdás and soooo want to use your tip to practice right now! But it's 12:15am here in Australia and my roommates would kill me😆😆

[@Alex-gu7je]

[@zerozerg2789]

Devdatta Andrades you should buy a muter

[@Arionna626]

i really wanna play crystallize but that one part is so hard to do (obv its the sautille). now im determined to master it

[@JoyLeeViolin]

Wonderful Zras! one step at a time, you will get there. Happy practising!

[@qiwang7331]

All I needed was at 1:01 😂

[@trevorstolz8580]

I have been trying for over a month to produce Sautille. I finally got it! Of course, the beauty of my tone is not where I'd like it to be. I am just glad that I can finally do it. However, I was practicing it using Kreutzer #8 as demonstrated in this video. My bicep muscles in my upper arm get so sore very quickly. I am sure, that once I am more comfortable with Saultille, I will be more relaxed. I am wondering though if this is normal? Perhaps I am trying to hard or do my muscles need time to develop muscle memory to be able to do this for prolonged periods of time? Please advise! I am working on grade 8 RCM repertoire. I'd really like to play Czardas for my List C piece but I'm not sure I'm going to be able to "master" sautille in a year or so. I may play "Salut d'Amour" as it has no sautille.

[@JoyLeeViolin]

Hi Trevor, if you feel tension in our bicep, sometimes simply lowering your arm ( upper arm) can help you to stay relaxed. I hope you can try. Happy practising!

[@bishalghimirey2993]

What is the difference between fast spiccato and sautille Is it just the speed?

[@alandoan1640]

The entire comment section is here for the sautille part of czardas lmao My main problem is that I get too legato sometimes, instead of bouncing

[@JoyLeeViolin]

Hi Alan, try to place the bow in the middle and use very short bows with flexible wrist. Sautille can take some time to develop , but practicing on open string every day even for a short time can do wonders. Happy practising!

[@rattansingh403]

i find it difficult to do string crossings while playing this stroke....

[@JoyLeeViolin]

Yes, it is difficult. Little by little. thank you and happy new year

[@rattansingh403]

Joy Lee you too :)

[@hjdinmohamad]

i can see a few violins there...are u violin seller or violin teacher??

[@JoyLeeViolin]

I am a violin teacher:) I hope my video is helpful to you. Happy music making!

[@Kargakisn]

Can you demonstrate 1 sautille per note?

[@JoyLeeViolin]

Hi Nikos, since sautille stroke is such a fast bow stroke, it's very hard to play only one sautille stroke. One could try though :) Happy practising!

[@jonathanviolin8762]

whether sautille speed equals tremolo speed?

[@JoyLeeViolin]

sautille can be slow or fast, whereas tremolo is somewhat in the same speed. So, no they are not always in the same speed.

[@jonathanviolin8762]

Is sautille the same as tremolo

[@JoyLeeViolin]

No, they are different Jonathan. The sound of sautille is disconnected whereas the sound of trill is connected.

[@jonathanviolin8762]

is the speed the same as the tremolo?

[@volknerbat7049]

Joy why Koreans have solid techniques is it in your blood

[@JoyLeeViolin]

:)

[@vishnuthandri7463]

How do you keep the bow from going on to the finger board when doing sautille?

[@JoyLeeViolin]

Simply looking at the bow during sautille can help. Also try to keep using very short amount of the bow. Happy practising!

[@risingkhero1714]

When I try this, I find that my wrist aren’t moving fast enough and it keeps lagging. Advice?

[@JoyLeeViolin]

Hi RisingKHero, try to check whether your right thumb is curved and relaxed. A flexible curved right thumb plays an important role in many advanced bow strokes like this one. Happy practising!

[@risingkhero1714]

Wow thank you! I will try that out!
