This is the best way I've ever learned to read music! I "can" read music but only if I sit down and take my time remembering all the note places. I've played guitar for 16 years and gave up on reading music because it would never click on where the notes were. I mean, you don't really need to read music to play guitar. I picked up a violin last week and have followed your lessons here and wow. It's so easily clicking in my head what the notes on the sheet are saying to what strings and finger placement should be. I'm actually reading and playing along in time to what I see for the first time, and without having to look at what my hands are doing. It feels great.

Hi Alison, I usually never comment on YT but I just wanted to say a huge thank you for sharing your skills and making music education accessible and affordable to all. I went through your piano lessons a while back and am now trying the violin which has been a childhood dream. Your content is, as always, comprehensive but easy to follow. There are a lot of elements to the violin which make it a challenging instrument to learn but so far I have found it so much easier to connect the instrument to the sheet music which I have always struggled with on the piano. I am definitely subscribing to your Patreon. Thank you, you are an asset to the classical community!

As a beginner, I wanted to know it all so I could start playing songs so I rushed everything. I sounded like crapola. Frustrated, I took your advice from an older video where you mentioned you wouldn't practice intonation until you have the bowing down on open strings first for at least a month or more. I sucked it up and just practiced getting the tone and technique down by only bowing on the open strings. By golly you were right! Screeching gone. Even the dogs and cats don't scatter when I practice now. Best few months I ever spent . Thanks for the great advice, Alison.

My fingers are all over the place with Lesson #6. They are literally doing their own thing. I know I will improve over time. I find myself looking at the strings while playing instead of looking at the sheet music. I guess that's normal since my fingers don't know what to do. I don't have any real questions for now but I feel like I will be on Lesson #6 for at least a solid month 😭. Thank you for everything 🙏🏽

Literally I'm having a blast!! I bought a really really cheap violin off amazon, just to learn the basics on tuning hold, bowing, and maintaing the violin, and learning wear the notes are and applying basic music theory to it. Once, I have all that down I will probably invest in a $250-$300 violin! I have played guitar for about 13 years, but I have always wanted to learn violin but always have been hesitant cause I never learned to read music, I only knew music theory in the sense of playing guitar which has helped with violin! these lessons are so exciting and each one as I progress gets more and more fun!

I'm excited to be ready to move into Lesson 6. I spent weeks working in the practice exercises in less 5 -- taking time to 'hit' only the proper open strings for each note, and running through each exercise at least three times perfectly before moving on. I broke both wrists last year (while dancing) and realize that poor steadiness bowing 'probably' is because I'm still building enough wrist strength and coordination so that I don't hit the neighbor-string. I developed a mental-picture to help me stay on each single string also... Maybe it's silly, but I think I need it -- So... 5:00 o'clock for the E-string, 4:00 o'clock for the A-string, 3:00 o'clock for the D-string, and 2:00 o'clock for the G-string. Not sure that's entirely kosher, but it seems to be helping me get on and stay on each string. Thanks for all your coaching -- and I like when you challenge us to practice and learn. I'm working up to 'rewarding' myself by purchasing your lesson books. Blessings!

That's the biggest hurdle for me is holding both arms up at the right angles to play for sustained time periods.

@TheOnlineViolinTutor6 жыл бұрын
Its all explained in lessons 11-20, but the dot next to any note means to add on half of the note. For example, if you have a 2 beat note, then a dot behind it, the dot of worth half of said note (1) and so you add on what the dot is worth (1) to the main note (2) and the whole thing is worth 3 beats. The 'circle' is a note that is worth 4 beats. I would worry about this so much now, just get used to playing and concentrating on the violin and which notes and what and where on both the violin and sheet music, as what you ask (in my opinion) is not crucial to know right now. It will be explained soon, when you do need to know.

Now I realize that's not the case, I just never had someone explain anything to me properly! Thank you so much for providing us with this course I have something I struggle with, anytime I play 1st Finger Notes on the G or D String (especially D String) the sound is kind of muted and not clear. Not sure how to explain it, but it sounds a bit messy. I've tried everything from pushing the string down with more pressure, less pressure. Even bowing with more or less pressure, more near to the fingerboard or more in the middle between fingerboard and the bridge. Nothing really makes a difference. Is this something that will get better with practise or is there anything else I am doing wrong? I don't have this problem with the A and E string. My Open Strings all sound beautiful.

Hi Alison! Firstly a huge thank you for this amazing free content you provide. Your style of teaching and explaining really clicks for me. I decided to learn violin at the age of 43 (friends tell me i'm masochist lol) and have been following this. I'm definitely also hoping to subscribe to your patreon from next month and really want to support you. I have a question and i'm sorry if it's been answered elsewhere and I've missed it. How important is, at this stage, to not hit other strings, or not sound a bit scratchy, before moving on to next lesson and so on? I spent one week on open and now one week on 1st and know exactly where the notes are on the sheet and on the violin but i still sound scratchy at times (especially on the G string) and still hit other strings on occasion. Not always, mostly if i get a bit distracted or if my posture changes and the violin slips and changes position. Should i stick until it's perfect or should i move on? Thank you so much again :)

It is important you learn to isolate strings, but you wont be able to do this is you are learning on a cheap student violin with a poor set up as its a false economy. You can carry on, but without upgrading to something better set up, you will always hit those other strings.

It’s technically going to be different for everyone based on the current tuning of their violin. The best way to figure out the exact position is by using a tuner. Slowly slide your finger up or down the neck while you play the string to get as close as possible to the correct note. Then, rather than memorize exactly where your finger is, listen to the pitch and try to remember that. This is the best way to learn because your tuning will never be exactly the same, so by recognizing the correct pitch, you can tell whether or not you’re making the correct sound, rather than trying to place your finger in any one spot.

If you look at her video for stickers on the finger board it shows how far down it is

I enjoy learning the violin - as much as I can. Now my question: can somebody help me to understand how to hold the left hand properly on the finger bord... that they are not stiff and so on... the bow holding goes very well :) please I'm thankful for every help :)

Hello! Your lessons are super helpful and an invaluable source of education for beginners like myself. Thank you so much! I was wondering, however, if you had any tips on how to play these exercises (or play any piece in general) while reading the music at the same time. Is that something one just gets better with through practice, or are there any specific tips to follow? Once again, thank you so much!

Yes - you will improve on that in time. Its not something that has ever been an issue for any student of mine as it corrects and solves itself as you get better.

First of all I want to thank you for your work, they are really good. The open strings took me 4 full days, well we are in quarantine, so time is all what I have. Second its my third day in the first finger, to be honest its hard but nothing is impossible, so I have a question! How to change the finger from one string to another, like in the last exercise in the pdf, when changing from E in the D string to B in A string? Awaiting for reply, And thanks Again.

You will just need to stop the bow, reposition it, then carry on. To be honest, you wont be crossing more than 1 string in actual playing, but, I do like to make sure all my students are taught well and are always ahead of the game.

Hi Alison, first of thank you so much for creating this channel. I was wondering, if you can't hear by ear what the right notes are yet, how do you practice this? I've got the doy stickers for 1st and 3rd finger and I got someone at a music shop check it for me if they were in the exact right spot. But do you first practice with the tuner next to it? So you know you're spot on? I'll keep scrolling through your other videos, in case I missed a video about this. Thank you.
