The beard is gone. But it will be back. Thanks for checking out my BestPractice series, where we look at ways of practicing smarter and building the artist's technique. This video covers a great little endurance practice tip: by shifting an entire passage up an octave and paying attention to the points we cover in this video, you'll play better it in no time! What are your favorite ways to make a passage MORE difficult as a way of practicing it?

Today we’re looking at 3 versions of a favorite violin exercise of mine. I practice this everyday to warm up my technique and expand my abilities. It’s incredibly helpful for honing vibrato, shifts, sound production and more. The idea of playing only with 2 fingers at a time is game-changing! See which of these 3 variations (by Hrimaly, Yost and Gola) you like the most. By the way, most of my videos have accurate Spanish captions available now thanks to my student Rocio. All videos will have captions soon.
