The Violin Plays the Bow

    When a dancer holds a pose for a long time, it's much more difficult and strenuous than constant movement. That goes for violinists as well. Constant free movement will keep you from getting tense. However, the movement does need to enhance your violin playing and not detract from it.

     This video outlines two different movements and how to use them in a musical context. Enjoy the experimentation and enhanced musical expression!
