Hello! I am someone who has played violin on and off over 50 years but gave up on spiccato for the most part due to frustration. I appreciate the honesty with which you say we all struggle so enjoy the journey. My fear about spiccato was a bad experience as a teen playing the overture to the Magic Flute as second violin. I was humiliated that I couldn't do what others did so effortlessly. This and you other video give me hope to finally play Sicillienne and Rigaudon by Kriesler.
Thank you for another excellent presentation. Again, I find everything covered wonderfully, and there is so much guidance to help along the way. I wish I could hit the like for each time I watch to practice along! ;) Best wishes, and I look forward to another subject!
I definitely feel I understand spiccato better now!
Thank you so much for your great video again. Looking forward to my next spiccato practice.

Such an excellent explanation of the physical and technical aspects of spiccato! Thank you!
So glad it was helpful!

That is a tough 2nd violin part! Thanks for sharing - keep going!

So glad you enjoyed it and that it was helpful! =)
Thank you. Do you think that it would be helpful to work on detache to make my forearm stronger for spicatto?
Rather than "stronger" listen/get a feel for evenness between upbow and downbow.
