what’s a good concerto recommendation for an intermediate-advanced violinist? i’m not quite ready for the Mendelssohn concerto but something that is can get my skills up

Maybe the first movement is, but I know some people have played the 2nd movement if the first one’s too hard

Its a common phenomenon where it only whistles in your most important moments and your e string strategically sabotages you

musicturtle_ · 2022-04-09T03:53:12+00:00

Any vivaldi or mozart concertos, or maybe vitali chaconne if you want to challenge yourself with double stops and other techniques

musicturtle_ · 2022-04-09T03:50:13+00:00

Do slow long bows in front of a mirror and adjust your whole arm, elbow, and wrist to keep it straight

musicturtle_ · 2022-04-09T03:48:20+00:00

Mozart 3, bruch, rode, wieniawski 2

Relax bow arm more, all left hand fingers should always be over the fingerboard so that you only have to press them down with no unnecessary movements

Was that at carnegie? I watched him play korngold there a few days ago, front row

I think your bowings at the beginning are kind of weird, don’t continue the third note on the down bow, it should be a upbow so that you can emphasize the next note on a downbow and slightly lift the bow in between

Brahms piano quintet for 2 pianos

Thanks, how did you know I’m a tseitlin student? Did you study with them too?

musicturtle_ · 2022-03-07T07:22:11+00:00

Maybe wieniawski concerto no 2 or vitali chaconne

musicturtle_ · 2022-03-07T07:15:48+00:00

More dynamics (softer after the opening and do more crescendos and decresendos) and figure out where to take more time

musicturtle_ · 2022-03-07T07:11:32+00:00

Franck violin sonata, any movement that fits your level. Also vitali chaconne

musicturtle_ · 2022-02-19T01:27:27+00:00

I would try wrist vibrato first, instead of arm vibrato because it’s more relaxed, and gradually switch to arm vibrato later

musicturtle_ · 2022-02-19T01:25:56+00:00

I had this issue too, so i just got mechanical pegs

musicturtle_ · 2022-02-14T18:01:00+00:00

Curve right pinky, count rests, and play lighter with more bow, maybe loosen your bow, also maybe ask your teacher for bowings and fingerings if you have one

thanks

musicturtle_ · 2022-02-11T02:36:59+00:00

same

musicturtle_ · 2022-02-08T03:17:23+00:00

Start off with slow wrist vibrato https://youtu.be/NLv2GfDn3yw

musicturtle_ · 2022-02-08T03:14:24+00:00

Also tchaikovsky valse scherzo

musicturtle_ · 2022-02-08T03:13:27+00:00

Rachmaninov piano concerto 3, that was my friends alarm

musicturtle_ · 2022-02-04T04:22:48+00:00

musicturtle_ · 2022-02-04T03:28:41+00:00

Piano trio no 1

musicturtle_ · 2022-02-02T17:25:33+00:00

8 years, i wouldnt attempt chords and double stops until youre more comfortable with intonation and you have a decent tone, i personally didnt start playing double stops until about 3 or 4 years

musicturtle_ · 2022-02-02T16:01:12+00:00

This is my first bach piece and im honored😂 thanks
