- Six Lessons with Yehudi Menuhin, the best series of violin video tutorials on technique I've seen. A must see for violinists of all levels.
Forgive the quality, it is an old BBC programme.
Spotless. Perfection, how lucky those students has been taught such a great way to start violin,
No doubt its the best ever bow lesson have even seen🙏 wish every one whom want to learn violin can see this, even played violin for years still need to watch that, please do watch again n again 😊
This is a treasure buried by one of the kindest most genuine teachers I've ever seen!
This video depicts what it needs to be a hero. persistence in determination to acquire every detail needed while remaining utmost relaxation.

17:53 2nd aspect of strength
continuous pull & push
continuous adjustment of arm
Keep bow straight line without arcs
18:59 2kinds (of strength) put together to whole bow stroke, figure 8
19:53 return to no effort state, state of floating sound~ balance the bow, casting the weight in the shoulder
shoulder is quite aware of this responsibility
Bow & its motion is continuous never-ending One
Thank you hero.
My respect for Menuhin as a violinist knows no bounds but I find his explanations overcomplicate matters to a daunting extent. I felt the same about 40 years ago when I read his book. It tied me in knots for a while - working from the outside in instead of vice versa. It took Kato Havas (whom Menuhin greatly admired!) to untangle me. Mit Vorsicht zu genießen!
Give us all of it !
A definite MUST for everyone interessted in the matter !
What a wonderful series, thanks a lot for uploading this = D
the same day i decided to take some lessons i found this series online. Menuhin ...Wow ...a lifetime of artistic musical brilliance giving us all of it. Inspiring or what.
'The sooner you feel it, the more sensitive your fingers are'
How beautiful and integrated this movement is.
Thanks for sharing. This is a treasure.
Thanks so much for sharing all those series of lesson. Honnestly I've tried to take some lessons but the two teachers I had never explained so well compared to him. So I've abandonned lessons to follow my own lessons using several sources and this one is one of the best. As french and not fully english fluent all what he said and teach is even clearer versus what I've got as what they called "lesson". I'm sure that there are very good teachers but in big town not in rural place like where I'm leaving. Good violin to all. Cheers
Well, that would be because he is one of the most famous and greatest violinists of all time
Hello, I'm Brazilian and I do not speak English. This text was done in the google translator. I have a request to make. youtube has a caption that you can correct the English generated automatically, this legend ends up having some errors and when I put the caption to see this sequence of videos of Menuhim has many items that I do not understand. I do not know if you know how to do this correction it is done like this:
1- Enter the study of creation;
2- click on edit video:
3- click on subtitles / CC
4- click in automatic English;
5- Click edit.
Wow, I know it gives a lot of work, but if you correct the automatic caption this way, these Menuhim classes will be easily translated into any language, not just Portuguese, but in all languages, and we who do not know English will have access to those menu concepts that are so important.
thank you,
Marcello.
This Is Gold 🙏

Wow ... day three, and still trying to hold a stick. I can position my fingers, but the vertical movement is poor, slapping just completely detaches my pinky... Well since this is not my main instrument I plan on simply not playing a single note again until this technique is developed correctly or at least acceptably :P
I can say that I have been rewinding, and find that usually a correction allows me to progress (for example my fingers now slide correctly retaining shape and can more or less do some vertical movement) Also each day I start at the beginning and usually spot something I overlooked. Also I think I'll have to get a mirror for tomorrows stick playing.
Anyone else find this challenging? If so, how are you approaching it?
PS Thank you so much for this incredible tutorial. Hard to believe one can simply enter a classroom with a legendary player, at any time and ask him to repeat the lesson as many times as it takes. You have uploaded a true gem, really appreciate it.
Well it has taken a rather long time, but I was able to isolate my problem.
I found the base of my thumb to have reduced mobility due to an old injury. I had completely dismissed this as I play classical and electrical guitar, keyboards and bass all of which make heavy use of it. But when I performed the movements with my other hand I noticed this limitation. My fix has been to slowly rehabilitate it by a gentle push with the other hand and focusing on making this movement possible (IO unlocking it)
Consider inspecting the mobility of every joint in your hand if you have any problems. This is a very controlled movement and you may be unaware of these issues that can make this all but impossible if not dealt with.
The pinky falling is a good indicator that your hand at least is not that tense. A good way to notice which parts need to "follow" the stick is to practice the exercise which someone else is moving the wooden stick and your hand on a relaxed way move with the stick but keeps all the contact points on place.
Then with the bow, when you become better at it you will notice that "bouncing" of the fingers that also wants to make a circle.
Also remember that relation between 1 and 4 finger(when he talk about not punting pinky to much on top of the bow). Losing contact on your first finger will make the pinky to drop off the bow.
I can finally study with my hero.!
I absolutely agree with cosmicbottom's delicious observations.
Absolute bliss to have this, thanks so much for posting.
很牛逼的教学，一看就懂。哈哈，学了一个月，运弓这段才真的明白其奥义，就是弓需要非常平滑地在弦上做平行移动，所以需要使用手腕，手指进行微调，在每次运弓的时候，大臂作为一个平台只保证平衡，外加微调辅助，小臂进行发力，手腕第一次进行微调，前后小指食指进行第二次微调，过程中，大臂和手腕小指食指以及中指拇指进行第三次持续地协同微调，无名指食指负责横向微调，目的是保证运弓过程中保证弓子绝对平行。
@Judingo: maybe it's a strenght problem, if so, it will come of it's own. For now keep the nail very very short, and bend the finger to touch and push on the inside, not the top. You could put a few layers of medical tape to help you with the grip, just make sure to take them off when you no longer need them.

*huge smile*
I feel the same way!!
How about double jointed students - that has been a problem in my 30 yrs of teaching
good
A better way to study playing violin.!
What year was this shot taken? I would've guess circa 60's???....any comment??
he died in '99 and the bbc started broadcasting in color in '67, the hair and cloth styles look late 60's very early 70's.
@@hifijohn what are you saying 😐
👍🏻

Bow hold appears to be a real issue. Some Beginners cannot progress well because they are told how to hold the way like this or like that ! The Bow measurements are constant, but fingers are shorter, longer, thinner/slim, fatter and all these affect the wrist. I think each one must find out the right particular way to hold the Bow, making sure the Bow would not fly away from the fingers. I hold the Bow my own way and began to improve in play ability ! I am still a Learner and trying hard !
are you still playing?
problem gets into forming a bad habit and learning advanced bow skills later on..
I JUST unlocked the wrist flexibility achievement. It took a decade of regular playing. As for no tension in hand that too took like a decade.
If playing violin didn’t work out for Mr. Menuhin he could have done hand modeling!
Damn it TH-cam! Don't you know I have to go to bed?!! I don't even play the violin!!
Stick. , principle of position of finger ....... matter of balance and pressure
1:41 distance between finger approximately equal, no tension anywhere at all
2:46 大拇指的接觸點
3:05 所以大姆指可以 順勢移動 當在各種不同的運弓位置
3:18 this is the actions it should be able to do
3:21 this is the action it will do
3:30 the second finger
3:54 the first finger
4:18 weight of the arm
4:44 the fourth finger
5:17 the third finger
(5:31)another function. up bow
(5:40) action against thumb
* 5:57 two arcs
(6:06) the other one. Bridge ~ 1 vs 3 4 finger
(6:21) this bridge spread the Weight of arm transfer to first finger then retranfer back to 3 4 finger
6:40
(7:04) 握拳 擴張手指 練習
7:12
7:25 basic principle of
* 7:48 the angle of knuckles always 45-degree
7:59 first to reason of this angle
.... keeping the thumb always in the right And angle to the stick
8:38 second reason
9:14 third reason
Tip frog 必須採取這樣的姿勢position 這個並且需要 很好的手掌彈性flexibility
10:01
10:22 flexibility is required in Many ways....... ,pushing, pulling, lifting ....... in circle
10:34 in circle take as ...... one string to another, one bow to another, connect top half bow to bottom half bow
10:51 to test softness & flexibility
11:17 when you are Short of flexibility
11:37 combine two direction in a circle
12:00 在弓正中間做上下的動作
12:34 往 弓根移動 做上述一樣的動作
12:53 flexibility test, fingers remain in the same place
13:31 vertical test
14:18 strength
14:38 first require ~momentum. puls. intermediation paaaive
14:52 second require~ prolong continual effort
15:06 first is for a change of Direction
Smack bonce(15:34 )
17:22 making circle
17:53 second aspect of strength is involved in continues pull push bow
in the down bow (18:17)
In the up bow (18:33)
18:58 put 2 (prolong)& 1 (smack bonds) together
19:54 return to no effort state, state of floating sound
All we have to do is Balance the bow
And carry the weight in the shoulder
20:26 continues never ending one
cant make out what he is saying can hear him
прежде чем учить детей надо было самому разобраться почему при движении вниз его рука испытывала такой дискомфорт ... хотя надо отдать ему должное наверное он был очень талантливый человек и занимался очень много ,потому что другие люди при таких проблемах вообще не смогли бы играть такие сложные произведение как он . Но детей надо усить было бы другому человеку
