Just a request: can you find more examples of 4th finger vibrato? I notice that the newer generation has especially good freedom in the first knuckle. I've seen one snippet of a Hillary Hahn video showing her to have ridiculous 4th finger motion even high up on the E. Goals.
Hello Michael, thanks for comment! I'm not sure about being able to make a video only about the fourth finger vibrato motion, but for sure I'll think about it and I'll make some research...In relation to Hilary Hahn, totally agree...her left hand and fingers flexibility and motions are really great and her 4th finger in particular just insane...
@@AlbertoRegueraviolin Yeah, everyone on the list had great 4th finger, and I find that difficult also!
Thank you so much! This is so helpful for a teacher, it explains faster then all the method books, how vibrato really works. Listening again and again.
Here I am trying hard to get a nice, slow, rich vibrato for lyrical passages - yet in every example in the video they all have quite fast vibratos. Hmmm.
I think slow and rich vibratos are better for lower pitched instruments, mostly the cello and double bass. My opinion tho!
Watch Augustin Hadelich’s videos
Enhorbuena ,Muy buena idea y aclaratoria
Hahn Has Got to Be the Best One !
This is a matter of opinion
What do you mean by, the best one. Why has she got to be ?

Vibrato can be way overdone and it has. Not every note needs to be vibratoed. To my ears intonation sounds better and vibrato is the icing on the cake.
I’m on my 5th year of academy, getting my masters degree. No one has ever told me about the first finger joint needing to be relaxed and flattening as I’m vibrating. I struggled so much because the tips of my fingers were always so stiff cause I thought that’s how they’re supposed to be.. I always wondered why does my hand and arm start hurting after just a little bit of vibrating…, it required extra movement and energy to achieve a full vibrato and it didn’t even always work.
Now at the age of 26, learning about the role of the first (finger tip) joint’s role in vibrato… my vibrato game is changing drastically. I wish any of my teachers have told me about this before.
Thank you for this video. It changed my life.
Wow, I´m going to the exact same thing! Well almost, Im 19 and I started with a new teacher, and well shes basically changing almost all of my technique, but this was one of the first things she noticed and put me to work on. Its though, but helpful, never realized it and I feel like my 1st joints are harder than my biceps at the moment.
Thank you Sei Nikki, I'm glad you found it useful! And yes, as you say, flexibility and relaxation in the first finger joint is sometimes skipped when talking about vibrato, but I think it's one of the more important things to be aware of when talking about this topic.
Same fir me, it is awful ti having practiced with wrong technique for about 7 years. I'm glad I noticed it when practicing for a competition, when I was asked why my vibrato didn't work well in higher positions, now I'm trying to correct it for about three months, and I do see a improvement. But to be honest, it's just awful, to try to correct something after doing it wrong for such a long time, it takes probably five times the time and also effort. I hope we will make it😢
Interesting how many of the great violinists often vibrate sharp of the note (above it) as well as below it, something most of us are taught not to do, yet I feel it makes the vibrato sound more intense and interesting when they do this.
Very interesting! This confirms what I have always suspected. All the violinist's examples prove Galamian's vibrato theory as being wrong. The pitches of the oscillations change in both directions, up and down and not only downwards as he claimed.
what is this theory? what says?
@@pablouuuu this theory originates from Galamian's violin technic book and was more or less worldwide adopted.
I'm only up to Christian Ferras ... but so far you have made a true observation. Cool to see in slow motion! Besides slight intonation troubles in general ... Funny thing is that at full speed, I don't really hear to much out of tune, just great vibrato ...
Well, the two younger players mostly stick with it ... Hillary and Sara ... I love all the vibratos, but somehow from somewhere Perlmans is in my ear like a mother ...and like a lady I used to hear and play with ... Lois ... miss her ...
@@bennyblanko3 It is practically impossible on the violin to nail every note 100% in tune. The real art is to correct the note before anybody else notice that it was out of tune!
Grumiaux Bach recording is amazing, and underrated.
Menuhin was so consistent and flexible.
Oistrakh breathes so wonderfully with his bow.
Basically me right now, appart from doing homework and projects haha
Muchas gracias por el trabajo.Hay que ver la de colores que puede dar el vibrato , bien usado y con el pertinente control.Como curiosidad , añadir que la ruleta de las velocidades de youtube es muy útil para quienes quieran hacer esto con otros músicos.
It is actually very simple. All depends on the angle the last joint of the finger has relativ to the fingerboard when it hits the string. If it arrives in a very flat angle, it can only vibrato upwards. If it arrives at an angle of more than 90%, it will vibrate downwards. At 90% it will oscillate equally in both directions.
N' oubliez pas le mouvement lent du concerto de Beethoven par Ivry Gitlis enregistré sur scène en 1995 (il avait 73 ans..) et son vibrato "multi technique" exceptionnel et toute beauté...comme sur tous ses enregistrements..
❤❤❤ j'ai eu la chance de pouvoir assister à son concert d'adieu aux Beaux Arts. 🎶🎻🎵🙏🏻🤗💕
very helpful video, i am still struggling to do vibrato, but this video helps me to recognize i am making progress and not doing it wrong
this is so painful. thanks
Спасибо за видео.Благодаря ему я поняла технику вибратто.Несколько раз пересматривала.Хорошо придумано - замедленная съемка.❤
Watching it during doomsday. The slow motion vibrato is somehow suggestive of some terrible ending, implying ruined hopes and lost dreams. It almost seems to insinuate a sad story of musical failure, maybe a career that was interrupted by disaster or madness.
we will vibrate in hell!!!
Excellent way to see just how the fingers are being used.
Hi. What about Philippe Hirshhorn's vibrato? It was so individually intense
please cancel this video， this is Top Secret !!!!! this is key technic of Top violinist.
:)))
Arm vibrato ( Joshua Bell ) is not popular. I am a beginner and I can do it. But I don't think my finger joint is bending and straightening much. And my violin shakes. Is that why?
I'm not so sure about. I tried wrist vibrato to start with but even after a few years it wasn't improving, wasn't getting anywhere with it. Then I tried arm vibrato trying to not move the wrist, it was difficult, it felt like starting again and with annoying violin shake for a long time, but after a few years it has improved so much, progress finally.
Arm vibrato has encouraged and forced the movement of the first joint in the fingers because it has to, training them and at the same time it has unconsciously encouraged wrist flexibility/movement. Now with the vibrato originating from the elbow, the wrist also moves in a natural way, its not rigid, along with the fingers, and also there is minimal violin shake with hardly anything on some notes. So, on some notes/strings it may seem to an observer I'm doing wrist vibrato but the origin of the movement is clearly from my elbow, I'm not even conscious of moving my wrist and yet it does, quite amazing considering I had so much trouble with moving the wrist solely before.
So give arm (elbow) vibrato a try (ie vibrato that originates from the elbow even though your wrist and fingers are not rigid and are free to move).
Regardless of how the vibrato is generated, I think it is important to note that flexibility of the first joint is a must. It is something that can be practiced even without a violin trying to gradually mobilize that first joint of the fingers with the help of the thumb, for example ...
I think that one of the causes of your violin shaking too much might be precisely that lack of flexibility, as well as possible extra stress. We must try to work to make the vibrato a relaxed and natural movement, avoiding damaging stresses on the joints of the fingers, wrist, arm and shoulder in general. I hope it can help you.
@@AlbertoRegueraviolin Thank You Alberto
Here's a good video on that joint: th-cam.com/video/KT7gvjm9Zq0/w-d-xo.html
Great video, but I muted during the slow-motion excerpts because the sound was unbearable
This is well intentioned but completely useless as any guide or "tip" on how to produce vibrato. It does not deal with the mechanics of how the movement is produced. The lower the string, the harder the vibrato. Almost anyone can approximately vibrate on the A and E string. The difficult strings are the G and D. They require a very focused and specific set of exercises to make any kind of vibrato work. Some people hit on the right method straight away. Others struggle for years and get nowhere. We desperately need a really analytical and useful guide to vibrato, that should not be presented as a mystery but as an achievable goal. I have yet to find a single youtube published video that gets anywhere near it.
If you read the title and saw the thumbnail, you would expect to be taught how to do it by watching this video
Hello fingerhorn4! the video is not intended as a guide to learn to vibrate. It is a video made for my students with the intention of showing the vibrato movement in some of the great violinists. I don't have time these weeks but I would like to make a more detailed video about vibrato and how to get to do it and I will definitely do it in the future. Definitely not a mystery! Ideas to add or include in the video are welcome. Thanks for comment!
Not expect****
@@KiloNovva :)
This video actually really helped me. So... u wrong bro.
Many thanks.
English?
Really helpful, could you tell us which software can do this?
Hello YuShengYang, actually I don't use only a software, but several: Wondershare Video Converter for cutting and editing; VLC for slow motion, and Jaksta Screen Recorder for screenshot videorecording...Imovie and sometimes Audacity for mixing sound.
Transcribe! is a software I use to slow down audio and video. works great!
Que linda que es Sara Chang
Thank you.
Great video, Alberto. I love to watch Perlman’s left hand, specially the motion of his thumb when shifting down the violin. He makes it look so easy, especially with his hands so very large!! My teacher, who tries to get students to not use a shoulder rest, encourages his students to study Perlman for technique.
Thank you Joseph! Yes, I love to see him play too...The violin is like a toy for him :)
On first viewing, it looks like he has the most isolated finger vibrato out of all violinists. It looks like he's really engaging the muscles in the joint above his knuckles when he pulls his finger back.
Each student varies in style and there is no single technique for the violin, some will need shoulder rest, others will not, others a very long sr, others short, some will have wrist vibrato and others arm, or both, even finger some, but each person is a unique being and modern teachers should take this as a premise, because they are making a very ugly mistake in forcing students to do something that goes against their nature. I studied with many teachers and this is so. If this is normalized, I hope they will accept left-handed violinists and other instrumentalists as is being done with the guitar, and it will not happen again as it happened to me as a child that I came to class playing violin left-handed and the teacher told me that I was wrong, and to this day I'm a naturally left-handed playing right-hander against my nature.
@@pablouuuu Indeed!

This is so helpful. Thanks.
Glad it helps you! Good luck!
Qué enfermedad es esto Dios! Pero está muy bueno!!!
Adorable! Thank you.

I can't believe the great Ivry Gitlis isn't up here! His wide and fast vibrato is truely unique whereas some of these violinists have very similar sounding vibrato sounds.
The slow motion vibrato is giving me stranger things vibes 😂😂
😂
I'm having a hard time learning that :(
It's not uncommon, be patient...try to learn it always from relaxation, avoiding tension in your left shoulder/arm/hand...it's a kind of long term battle (not a matter of one day!). Cheer up and good luck! :)
I'm still trying to do a decent vibrato after 12yrs, I think I will put more focus on it for a while to really get this right. Find different ways to practise your vibrato too. TH-cam helps :)
I watched and noticed how wide their vibrato is. In the last 30 seconds I just picked out that even though I want a rich sound on the G string, my left hand automatically presses slightly more than it needs, restricting the vibrato. Even though I've always known to relax. You really have to be so aware of every movement from your left hand to your right, to your shoulders to your neck. Just everywhere!
@@bryanlin8333 Was playing the violin for 2 years and never got around to vibrato till 1 summer I decided to self taught it myself to join the club. I use the violin scroll against the wall. After a month I think I got the widest vibrato in my orchestra. Still some fine tuning here and there but feels good.
@@95thRiflesOCI ooh, interesting! will try that next thanks :)
This is awesome
Wonderful to see this in action for those of us who don’t use shoulder rests! Very helpful!
This is so helpful with learning finger vibrato and how it relates to wrist vibrato.
who has finger and who has wrist on this? knowing this would be very helpful to learn the difference. Thank you.
@@jenvogue5005 no one have finger vibrato, all are wrist, arm or combinations of both vibratos, but no finger. I have a friend who plays viola and he has finger vibrato, is rare and non practical, but is a vibrato anyway.
In the video Perlman have "the most wrist" vibrato, and Hilary han have an arm vibrato, but his fingers are too relaxed or maybe hiperlax
@@pablouuuu wait, are you the same person from the Ray Chen video? If so, nice to see you here! Thank you for your delineations!
ASM has all arm vibrato, wonder if that's because the entire cut is on the G string, but I suspect not.
@@lauraharding3101 I think this is a stylistic choice for the piece to widen it, you'll notice that she has rotated her wrist/elbow enough to keep it free from violin. The part that was informative for me in working on finger vibrato is the flexibility of the finger joints even using arm vibrato. Interestingly, she doesn't vibrate that top note on the G.
Thanks!! Really educational
