Wow, your videos are very good (But really the Caprice 4 is very difficult to master and I understand a lot haha). I don't know that you were notified about my comments on your last caprice 3 video... As I told you a little about my story, you will see that I am self-taught and this has a direct impact on your judgment regarding my execution of the Caprice 4. If you could tell me something I would greatly appreciate it.
Hello, no sorry I wasn't notified in the Caprice 3 video of your comment, I tried looking for it and I couldn't find it. Do you mind asking the question again? 🙏
I'll summarize - I started playing at the age of 11 in church, since then I started studying on my own, I've always focused a lot on technique (practically only on the left hand), last year I was able to study Paganini's Caprice 4 (just watching the interpretations) as I said I focused a lot on the left hand so I developed the techniques to try to play (besides the fact that I have absolute pitch so it helped me a lot with the tuning issue, I only discovered that I had it after I took a few months of private lessons) and it was by playing this Caprice that I managed to be selected to have lessons with Thierry de Lucas who was studying at the Juliard School. In short, I had to relearn the bow technique. I know it was a very bad point and it still is haha. So I'll keep practicing, but I wanted an honest opinion. Even after hearing from him that what I did was incredible, I still don't have much of an idea of what I did... I know it's far from being a good performance, but I would really like some feedback from someone who plays so well. I know that even for you to achieve a good performance you still have a long way to go, but that's life, right? There are very good people in the world with many more opportunities than us. Haha. And don't worry about what you have to say. I like transparency. And don't worry, I'll always be here to support you. Haha. th-cam.com/video/NTaVngwZFDk/w-d-xo.html I know there were parts that could be improved, but it was the best I could do because my bow had broken (I have another performance without the choking in that part, but I was using a cello bow so I don't think the sound was as clean, besides having difficulty perceiving clarity because of hearing note names all the time)
@@matsskills1674 dude, what you did is incredible, please keep at it. I'm so happy for you, and yes what you did requires incredible talent. Work a lot on relaxing your bow hand and you'll be a great player, and don't worry about when you started or how old you are, you clearly have the passion and that'll carry you further than talent. Very impressive and inspirational
@@SanTheViolinDudeThank you very much, I'm studying, I see that I still have a lot to learn and by the way your videos are very important, I thought the idea was really cool, I'm literally following everything and clearly learning from them. I know it's a very difficult area, it depends on many factors, I've always liked to study a lot or at least try haha I'm understanding a little more every day, thank you for reading my mega giant text haha
I’ve been looking forward to this one!! It’s been on my bucket list for a long time, and I’ve never quite known how to approach it. I’ve never tried practicing the pulsed thirds before. My hands always feel stretched in first position with minor thirds - especially 2 and 4 - so it will be a good exercise for me. Thank you so much for putting this stuff out for free. Much love from Colorado.
i see you play double stops (at lower positions at last) with bow very near the fingerboard. is this the best way or there isn't a really correct way, being near the bridge or near the fingerboard?
@@ElsweyrDiego for chords it depends on the situation, if you want a very bright sound bridge is better. If you want a dimmer sound, fingerboard sul tasto is better. Also if you want 3 notes at once, you can only do this near fingerboard where the strings are softest

Omg this is so incredible!!! You should be so proud of yourself, keep working on relaxing your right hand and you will be unstoppable 💪

Tx for this amazing practice lineup
its my favorite caprice and you played it so well. So cool that you show how to learn them.
Mine too! But a nightmare to play

I'm glad it's helpful 👍
Wow amazing I could never do something like that😅
Also, I guess you can try to play Sauret's Etude-Caprices after playing Paganini xD
@@SisselOnline I'm writing this in my to do list😂
Henryk Wieniawski
L'école moderne
Études - Caprices Op. 10
Also, tks😊
My favorite caprice to listening but looks like nightmare to learn 😂
Oh it is haha 😂
One of the hardest caprices, especially for intonation. Basically, done your best and beg for the god lol
Hey you’re the person with the funny recordings of the beatles songs
@@SisselOnline so true lol, I'm always praying from the very first note
@@ThatOneGuyRAR ahhh remember you xD
you should try to play Roman kims latest upload video
Maybe after I'm done with the Paganini 😂 notating by ear is too time consuming for me 😅
@ take your time
