Ayoub


Hello dear violinists, 

I'm Ayoub, and I've been playing the violin for four months now, 
i would like to know how can i improve my playing, one the things i have noticed in my bow arm is some sort of stiffness in the wrist, my bow strokes seem kind of robotic,

i would appreciate the help if you could tell me some exercises to make the bow stroke more smooth, 

any other advice's will be appreciated,

thank you

Ayoub, are you aware that Beth posted a whole video on the first movement of the Rieding concert not very long ago? That should be very helpful also.

I thought that was wonderful! Shame on your house mates for complaining about your playing!
I do think you should also use the lower half of your bow though ;) But basically i think you are off to a great start.

Ayoub, welcome to Violin Lab!

I will leave the advice and critics to the ones who are more advanced than me but I wanted to tell you that I'm impressed with your long straight bows!  Your intonation is excellent and I love the tone!  

You're off to a great start!  Congratulations!
