Don't even know how many vibrato videos I've seen but this is by far the best. Finally, a method that's helping me improve. Excellent.

[@TakeLessons]

Thanks for your comment @LandonDodd

[@wernerheisenberg4112]

Whenever I pick up a violin I suddenly turn into a paralytic who doesn't know how to use their hands.

[@csmihaly]

My wife says the same about me no matter what I pick up... She just calls me Mr. Beans.

[@Jleed989]

I hear ya!

[@ciri151]

welcome to instruments

[@a.elsagonzalez6824]

Yes!!

[@hanarumimansyah4563]

ive been watching a lot of videos of vibrato but all of them was just really 10 minutes of talking instead of actually showing me how unlike this one. this is really helpful, thank you

[@josesparks9867]

True

[@deltafour1212]

Best vibrato instruction on TH-cam

[@icefire3217]

deltafour1212 your first

Glad it helped! :)

[@parkerchinen7938]

Sarcasm included

[@Moxy770]

This Lesson is what I like ..Straight To The Point !!..Ive Been wanting to learn Vibrato since picking-up my Violin Thanx- Again!!!...

[@bekaemery2918]

not picked up the violin in a while and i dont remember my teacher even teaching me aything like this is how to play vibrato. thanks alot helped me understand what im supposed to be doing much better

[@iannahmulungi3114]

Watching my fourteenth video now trying to learn vibrato....this is the best so far!!!!! Thank you.

[@sonypatnaik4067]

I've been playing violin for 2 and a half years now, and I've been wanting to play like this forever. Hopefully I can learn this over the summer.

[@happysailing2]

Probably one of the best instructional videos on learning vibrato. Thanks for getting straight to the demonstration.

[@TakeLessons]

Thanks for the comment @TraceyEd

[@josesparks9867]

This will really help ,coz I've stayed for long without having Known vibrato due to wrong thumb placement

[@Ellie-oo2pp]

So I'm in Symphony and still can't do vibrato and I've been playing for 4 yrs and no one could teach me it. This video literally helped me so much! I am doing so much better thanks

[@ananyabanerjee778]

THANK YOU SOO MUCH FOR GIVING THIS VIDEO
YOUR VIDEO RELLY HELPED ME .
AND YOU VIDEO IS SO SIMPLE TO UNDERSTAND
THANKS A LOT ❤❤❤

[@shunwong3113]

what I like about this tutorial is that it show the vibrato from the viewing angle of the player, instead of the instructor. This makes trying to emulate the motions a lot easier. Most other tutorial you have to watch them on the reflection of a mirror.

[@daviddobrydnio1746]

the bow hold for the whole bow has eluded me. Bouncing bow has resulted. She understands the camera perspective is the perspective. Walk a mile in my shoes at least in this context seems to deliver the "goods."

[@daviddobrydnio1746]

You are a life saver with the camera angle. So much insight into vibrato as well as bow hold is derived from your video. It is a virtual cornu copia and it isn't even Thanksgiving or Latin class. Love the way you wade us into the ocean of violin pedagogy in such a casual way. Your method reminds me of Khan Academy. You could explain it to anyone!!!!

[@sabelagiraudier5848]

Best explanation I have ever seen in TH-cam. Congrats! :)

[@ahmadjaber5420]

i ve watched all the vibrato videos but urs explained so simply , thumbs up

[@TakeLessons]

[@cindytao6778]

Thanks! This is probably the best video that can help me on youtube. :)

[@emicals.]

Thank you! I can kinda do vibrato now. Doesn’t sound that great yet but I will just keep practicing. I’m left handed so it’s probably easier for me to do this but idk.

[@javascriptsv]

I’m left handed too and just started playing violin so I won’t really be able to tell

[@Ebbihenry]

am a learner its very helpful and useful. thank you

[@andrewcooley1915]

Thank you so much for producing such a procedurally fine video on how to practice vibrato. I have watched many without success. Yours was the first step wise video that I have seen and I am going to practice immediately

[@John_Smith5]

Best vibrato tutorial on TH-cam period

[@hercamera9837]

Very Helpful thanks. The Perspective of the camera really helped me.

[@laurelthomsen]

I'd encourage folks to create smoother transitions between the higher and lower positions to develop a smoother, ore flexible vibrato sound and motion over time, relax the thumb so it's a slight counter pressure at most and doesn't hinder smooth motion, and try several cycles in one bow to promote eventually being able to maintain a consistent vibrato no matter what the music has in store - various note values, slurs, repeated notes on the same pitch, etc. The vibrato must be able to flow throughout.

[@paulusmartin464]

thank you for this useful lession.

[@TheNShih]

This is a wonderful display of vibrato. Thank you so much.

[@TakeLessons]

Thanks John Carlo!

[@trendingagn3737]

It is amazing ......so helpful!

[@nidiamercedes1977]

I finally get it. Thank you

[@infinitepawer]

May be its cause by my pinky being too short because i found its very difficult to vibrato my 1st finger like you if the next note is to play by pinky finger ..

[@shankarverma4667]

thx

[@akrasia9092]

I don't have enough finger muscles to do this RIP

[@urimsuh]

@Wu Yining Lmaoooo

[@urimsuh]

@Wu Yining Actually "Each finger has six muscles controlling its movement: three extrinsic and three intrinsic muscles."

[@guycherubin]

Thank you!

[@neilmccallum2588]

Most helpful. Perhaps it would be better to start on 2nd finger, if this is the easier one to use.

[@muthukumarsingaravel9579]

Thank you very helpful

[@TakeLessons]

Thanks for watching! :)

[@thebigstinker334]

I’m not looking for how to do it but just the proper hand form

[@charleslloyd5488]

Charles Lloyd very imformative

[@alfatihah-ik9dw]

very good

[@delendenestobz2180]

hi

[@giuseppemastropiero144]

I really like your violin and one important thing that I observe is that the strings are very little raised with respect to the fingerboard. Of course, the tutorial very good. Greetings from Spain.

[@TakeLessons]

Thank you for watching, Giuseppe!

[@parkerchinen7938]

My arm is in actual pain rn thx a lot

[@misaelgoncalves2023]

show de bola

[@bunmiikharia491]

And the cramps.... 😩
But extremely helpful vid overall 👍👍

[@jedimusiciankid2109]

My humbly question is,,can I do or is it good to learn violin without shoulder rest ???thank you !

[@jedimusiciankid2109]

I mean violin vibrato

[@jean-alexandrelothon8034]

Poil 😬

[@kcs2003]

I don't know where to put my thumb

[@misaelgoncalves2023]

[@tranniebun]

[@lindsypaige2668]

Is it harder to play violin if your fingers are fatter? Legit question 😂

[@jedimusiciankid2109]

Very easy to see ,,but difficult to do ......?

[@davidlibolt1264]

Vibrato is a mah fakah.

[@angieo1485]

I can’t get virbrato at all

[@Kenny-lk7uu]

I swear this was filmed in a bathroom

[@TheNShih]

Glassify Plus that is a very rude to say that. Especially when people is teaching you.

[@Moremarmolejos]

Kenny The Penny lol

[@czhang1761]

hahaha i love your comment!

[@ddcll9538]

PRACTICE 40 hours every day and you'll know how to do vibrato even without tutorial. Guaranteed

[@chairy_playzmspx9372]

[@Misteryus99]

Chairy_Playz MSP x omg hahaha I didn't notice

[@rynvus2674]

Chairy_Playz MSP x so?

[@User-fc-4DR-71]

Horrible,unprofessional posture and the rest is insignificant

[@ravencolodan8716]

Ur arms are hairy

[@joy6121]

and who cares? so what if someone's arms are hairy. the hair keeps your arms warm! But that's just my opinion.

[@pavolsokolik2193]

thank you.

[@trishoaletha5468]

thank you!
