Left-Hand Shifting Technique for Violinists
Left-hand shifting technique and playing in higher positions
In this masterclass, I will focus mainly on getting smooth shifts with the left hand and talk about easy ways to play the higher positions on the violin.
Here are some of the topics I plan to cover:
- Improving left-hand shifting between different positions
- Improving your violin tone in higher positions
- Improving intonation or pitching in higher positions
- A few short pieces created to improve shifting
- Practice tips and exercises in the higher positions
Please send in your questions, and I will try to answer all of them during the class.
Note: For the Indian violinists attending this class, please tune your violin to D
