    The goal of this course is to practise string crossings using short bow strokes. I will explain the main ideas while keeping the bow in a square position. I believe that these techniques are the best foundation for learning string crossings with the full bow later on, and for building good right-hand posture when playing on individual strings.


    Some musical styles don't utilise long legato string crossings or playing near the frog at all. In such cases, musicians already gain all the essential knowledge from the early lessons of this course. Please be aware that knowledge alone is not enough to develop actual skill. I recommend staying with the early lessons as long as needed until you feel fully comfortable in physical actions.


    You can read the full text in downloadable materials.

Description

This is an on-growing course. At first, I shared PART 1, which includes sections from String Crossing in Short Strokes. There is a flood of materials in my drawers waiting to be shared in future parts, but even this first part already covers a very big subject.

I cannot simplify. I don't want to look for shortcuts, especially when mastering the subject is the best possible way. At the same time, studying all lectures properly is, in itself, a kind of shortcut — a shortcut to relaxed performing in the long term.

Since I am aware that we don't have much time these days, and also that diving too deep into technique is not a comfort zone for many talented musicians, I don’t expect a massive response to the course. Still, I wanted to share my rich experiences connected with life-time researches.

If you are really interested in improving your string changes, and you’re willing to give it your time and focus — here it is.

Even complete beginners can join and learn this technique after learning the basic bow hold as well as outstanding professionals and teachers.

I hope this course helps you connect more deeply with your technique and your music.

Enjoy your music!
