[@TheMightyPana]

OMG! She listened to me! haha. I was one of the ones who asked and you replied to me and said you were planning to do one of these videos! Thanks for listening! ~ Pana

:-)

[@draliene9640]

This is exactly what I needed I don't know why I watch this lessons at night and then try them the day after 😂

[@splendidblended5870]

Thanks so much for all of your wonderful and extremely helpful videos. I've been playing for 13 years but recently I haven't been able to take lessons which has been rather detrimental to my progress as a player. Your videos although mostly for beginners can be extremely useful for those of us who need to go back to the basics and improve.

[@ericdugas7332]

Thank you once again for another excellent video. That's exactly what I was working on, as I'm workin with scales. I was doing it wrong, once again, because I touched the violin with the external part of my hand. Another problem I have with the «high notes», is that I don't have any sound for the E or F on the E string.

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

Well first off you need to visit a surgeon to get a few bones taken out of your wrist to be able to do this.....no, not really im kidding - its really really hard (especially on the G string) but you do it in the same way providing you can actually do vibrato already. The movement will be limited and you probably wont dwell on those high notes as violin music is written for violinists and therefore composers know this.

[@banjiddle]

!, and yes, a surgical clipping of interdigital ligaments, like between the 3 rd and 4 th, and 4 th and 5 th as certain piano pros do. Owey!

[@wargasipilpubg2951]

How about the pinky finger on G string?

[@raquelvasquez5152]

Wow, I love how your so well detailed in demonstrating the proper techniques for this challenge. I'm just wondering, can this work for people that have small finger? So, no matter how high you go, your thumb shouldn't (even for the A7) right? Do you have a video on to get a good sound in high positions?

[@StudioAlNaqqash]

such a very nice and very helpful video tutorial...! God bless you

[@Rakelau]

Hello! tus videos parecen geniales pero... habria alguna forma de tenerlos en español? ya que no entiendo ingles. Gracias! :)

[@anonnymoussimon5792]

I like to light a candle when I play violin too!

[@avamooghen-gp3si]

I have a question: from which position our thumb goes under the violon? From five or six?

[@sweetpea7583]

So, if I'm understanding you correctly the thumb NEVER leaves the body where the neck meets?

[@TheMightyPana]

Thanks, i was wondering though, no rush no rush, but how would one do vibrato on those high positions? Preferably on the A/ E String. That is my main concern, i feel like my wrist can't really move as much when it is up there.

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

same principal as 1st position, but higher. Im going to do a video on this as there is no way I could explain it here - its far too complicated.

[@venussamady4735]

So useful 😍Thanks a lot 💜 Love from Iran ❤️

[@armanvi9934]

A violinist from my country ,searching about how to shift positions !👍Exactly like me🌍

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

No. Lo siento. No hablo espanol.

[@estelaqueliz6225]

:'(

[@francisconeves2151]

my thumb just slips of the arch back part of the violin, perhaps because of sweat... any suggestion on alternative positions of the thumb?

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

`not really as where else is there to rest the thumb?

[@lonniepaulson7031]

I am now trying to play these high notes. I am going through the last couple of pages of the book Introducing the Positions Vol II by Harvey Whisler. I have all ready learned all seven positions, these last few pages it introduces you to playing 8th through as far as 13th position. They show a note that is seven lines above the staff and they indicate fourth finger in XIII which is 13th position. How do you know where to find these notes? They don't show you where they are on the finger board. Is there a book on the market that can show you how to play these high notes and where they are so you can play them in tune. How do the pros learn this stuff? I am self-taught. I need help.

[@Fectivan]

Lonnie Paulson, learn perfect pitch.

[@faviod752]

Do you change your bowing when your are in a high position? After 6 position I need to move closer to the bridge to avoid hitting other strings. Is it always like that or is there something wrong with my bridge?

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

+D. Løan A little, you just have to work 'harder' to get a nicer sound and take more care on your bow placement.

[@ejdale8472]

I read tablature how come there is fret 5 to 9? On a song that im trying to learn

[@jetcabaya5457]

You played scientist colldplay violin cover right....

[@throngcleaver]

You're amazing. But in a good way!

[@12345papad]

Ok thnxs

[@victoriaeugeniarodriguezsa2482]

Does this apply for the viola too ?

[@violavicki]

no. It is larger so you really can't get all the way up to the top without anchoring your thumb along the side of the fingerboard.

[@juliejules7780]

My hands are too small to have my thumb holding the Violin and reach those high notes. I have to hold it up with my chin and hope I don't drop my violin

[@drandrewtan]

I think that's my problem too. I have short fingers.

[@catalinaburgos6649]

@@drandrewtan sometimes your hands are not flexible enough. You can try 'playing' in high position, stretch your hand as far as you can. This should help you. (I also have short fingers and a small hand, this exercise helped me a lot ^-^)

[@12345papad]

Hi Allision, can you please tell me the notes ater the 4th finger on violin.

[@hakulee4460]
