I think if every violinist in the world would have opportunity to see and realize the importance of what you are teaching in this video, you would get a lot of attention.

Firm staccato is born in the mind. Well said 👏👏

Урок просто бесценный. Огромное спасибо за видео! 💐🙏

Thanks Maestro. This set me on the right path with the appropriate wrist motion. However for me to get enough bite in the string and not tighten up, I actually rotate my forearm a bit (pronated more) and my first finger actually contacts the bow almost at its base. I’m virtually doing a Russian bow grip at this point. It does allow me to really dig in and stay relaxed. I’m sure that’s not the only way to do it, but it works for me. I’m able to get 16th notes clearly at 108, and I’m sure with a few more weeks of coordination it will get more hora staccato tempo. Edit: able to get to hora staccato tempo now, had to rehair my bow - it just would not give me the grip I need to clearly articulate the 16ths at 120. A dark rosin also helped tremendously.

Great lesson 🎻⭐️! Thank you very much…

Спасибо за ценные советы. Они поистине бесценны. Хотелось бы увидеть подробный разбор как делать красивое вибрато. Я уже видела ваши мастер классы, но эта тема по-прежнему мне интересна, так как всегда открывается много нового и новых возможностей скрипки.

big thanks shonert

I don’t teach only firm staccato, but I teach how to improve general technique of the right hand and sound production using the most difficult stroke like firm staccato. You can also order my online consultation and I will explane to you all exercises and detailed descriptions how to do it correctly.

Thank you! I'm a beginner and find this very interesting and helpful!

While there may be limited use of firm staccato in the literature, what you gain by learning it with Maestro Shonert's approach will have a major impact on the rest of your playing, as it has with mine. If you really want to improve your playing, please contact him. I have been taking lessons from him for 2 years and continue to learn more and more.

Amazing.

Thank you maestro👍👍👍👍

In my method "The Shonert technique" the training of firm staccato is only an irresistible stage for mastering the whole technique of the right hand. On the example of this stroke I learn to control my muscles, emotions and consciousness, and the firm staccato fits for it best of all. I dare repeat: the possession of this complex stroke will help in achieving the main goal to master the whole technique of the right hand. My staccato method is just the tip of the iceberg. I explain the basics of my methodology in my book" How to learn the firm staccato up and down for 3 lessons", which you can order on my web-site: shonertacademy.com/buy-book/ It is clear that there are the things that can be explained only by personal contact with the student. That is why in addition to the book I offer master classes and on line lessons. I help to remove the limits that many people create in their own heads. These very limits that very often create the problems for the performer and prevent him\or her from reaching a new level. "Firstly, you need to understand yourself and then to teach your hands".

Спасибо Вам большое за ответ и ссылку!

Why did it took me so long to find this? Thank you so much for the video.

Здравствуйте! Спасибо Вам за уроки! У меня такой вопрос... а если я играю пока только несколько нот этой техникой (гамма не очень получается) и только смычком вниз можно сказать что все же стаккато?...Заранее спасибо!

GRACIAS.......

Thanks a lot for uploading this video..! I've always wanted to have a good up bow staccato but I failed to do so..:( hope I can improve it more with the help of this video

Hi Maestro. Is it the quality of the bow that gives you possibility to do spiccato like you do through the whole bow? Because there are bows that are not that good and bounce/jump poorly, that will in a way will give you a hard time doing it right.

спасибо

Здорово, спасибо за видео! Я тоже использую пальцы минимально, но о стаккато не думала в этом ключе! :)

Спасибо! А какие у Вас скрипка и струны?

Hello master. Do you think it is possible to use this technique on the double bass method especially the german bow hold? Ďakujem.

I enjoy your videos very much! This is way off topic but may I ask what type of chin rest you use?

Maybe the most important video I've ever seen on youtube until today. I had to take a pen and to note everything you said. How can I buy your book? Is it possible to be sent to Brazil?

Thanks for the demonstration. Do you have video lessons on Staccato I can buy

Excellent.. thanks a lot. Please, can you make a video where you explain how to have a good left hand / intonation technique ( fingers / hands / elbow placement etc ). Thanks again Maestro :-)

The problem is can't can't forget that you have a wrist, that is why it stays stiff ... and you can't forget that you finger are holding the bow... and even if you relax...your wrist can't move like dead, once it bounded with the bow...

Holy Shit! I tried to do everything by forearm, ZERO work/pressure from hand or fingers and I can see promising results! Absolutely relaxed bow arm though I tend to regress on my old habits of tense bow arm when doing staccato. I'd be back after a month to update you guys about my progress.

Do you teach at any summer music festivals?

Can I use the same principle on the cello?

Master I have a question, if I don't use belgian-franc technique, do you think that exercices will be useful too? Pd:very good video congratulations

В моей методике "The Shonert Technique"обучение твёрдому стаккато является лишь необходимым этапом для освоения всей технике правой руки. На примере этого штриха я учу умению контролировать свои мышцы, эмоции и сознание, а твёрдое стаккато для этого подходит лучше всего. Повторяю: владение этим сложным штрихом поможет вам в достижении главной цели - освоения всей техники правой руки! Мой метод стаккато - это только"верхушка айсберга" . Я объясняю основы моей методики в моей книге “Как научится твёрдому стаккато вверх и вниз за 3 урока”, которую вы можете заказать на моём сайте. ru.shonertacademy.com/kupit-knigu/ Понятно, что есть вещи , которые возможно обьяснить только при личном контакте с учеником. Поэтому, в дополнении к книге я предлагаю мастер классы и on line уроки. Я помогаю устранить границы, которые многие сами создают в своей голове. Часто именно эти границы делают исполнителю проблемы и мешают выйти на новый уровень. “Сначала нужно понять самому, а потом научить свои руки.”

Спасибо за понавательное видео! Хотелось бы то же самое, только для русскоязычной аудитории, не знающей английского. На английском куча видеоуроков по скрипке, а на русском-очень мало. Легче научиться играть на скрипке, чем выучить английский! 😺😺😺

Спасибо. Очень хотелось бы на русском языке. Где можно купить Ваши книги? Дайте пожалуйста информацию gulshanm@yandex.ru

Сделайте перевод на русский！

Такое впечатление, что вы учились у В.Х.Мазеля.... Нет?

Можно на русском, пожалуйста 🙏

What .?

Staccato is very impressive, but some odd vibrato movements going on. His wrist is collapsing.

This is not new as Mozart father was already teaching this. Show something new ! JIN
