FREE Violin Lesson #3 for Beginners | SMOOTH BOWING

by | Jul 13, 2020 | Bowing Technique, FREE Violin Lessons for Beginners, Start to Play | 0 comments

To get a beautiful tone as a beginner violinist without sounding scratchy, it’s important that your fingers move along with the bow stroke.

Watch this video for some exercises!

The typical beginner sound is caused by a stiff bow hold

By moving your fingers along with the bow stroke, it’s a lot easier to bow straight and get a consistent sound. You can make seamless bow changes and your violin and bow keep resonating.

The result is that you don’t sound scratchy on the violin, but instead make a beautiful full sound.

We often think that beginner violinists have to sound awful for years, but with some deliberate practicing I show in the video, it’s possible to sound good early on.

Dive deeper into this topic with this video lesson on seamless bow changes.
