Sir, many thanks for posting this lesson. My teacher has just started me on this etude and it was feeling like an random assemblage of bow strokes. You have really brought this to life; I can now see it as a real piece of music. Once I get the notes under my fingers, I'll try some of your suggestions for dynamics. Thanks again. Ed (adult beginner of 4.5 years).
Hey Roy, it is wonderful to see light in your clear explanation, I would love to have more information about your self and the tutorials. I was accepted to be taught by a master and he does not have much time to teach in regular basis. So with your help Im sure some hours of practice can achieve your instruction.
Thanks Fredico for your appreciative comment. I'm not making new videos right now but I'll keep it in mind for the future. Best wishes for violinistric fulfillment.
I enjoy your master classes and get a lot out of them. I am an adult violin student and your public teaching is helping refine my playing. Can you please at some point publish a master class on Bach Double Concerto, Second movement? Gracias! Alfredo Castillo - San Antonio - Texas
Hola Alfredo. Thanks for your appreciative comment. I'm not making new videos right now, but I'll certainly remember your request for the future. Best wishes for violinistic progress and fulfillment. Roy
Good evening Profesor Sonne. I am studying Masas study #2 (Sweeping stroke) following your suggestions in your master class video. What would be a good metronome setting for this etude? Thanks for your consideration of my request. Alfredo
Do you have video on the etude 14 & 15? Your video enriched my understanding of the Mazas. Initially I found the medodies were not very easy to remember. You did a great job showing us.
Thank you so much sir,your lessons have been so enriching so very grateful. Please could there be ways of getting hold of these resource materials in the forms of Ebooks?
Perhaps you could play the whole thing through in your videos, maybe at the end or something? The video was extremely helpful, but I'm also looking for a good play-through that I can see so I can, i dunno- you get the idea. Thanks so much, reply soon. Once again, wonderful video.
Thanks, Dennis, for the compliment. You may not get "there" but you can certainly achieve steady and significant growth that can give you much joy and fulfillment. Find the joy in the journey! And by the way, please check out my website at the link above. You may find some more good assistance there. Best wishes.
Hello Professor, I am studying your Mazas 2 classes, it is easy to learn and in a simple rhythm, I would like to better understand some questions about 2nd and 4th position, with my former Professor I only studied 1st, 3rd and 5th, besides helping in Speed, what gives me advantages in the 2nd and 4th position? I still do not understand a better relationship about it. I look forward to your response and thank you very much for this opportunity that the Lord offers us in these rich classes. Here in Brazil, we have little incentive to study the instruments of this family, we have to work hard and there are very few teachers. May God bless your life for this beautiful work. thank you so much!!!
Hi Francisco. Thats a very good question and an important one. First of alll, there a re passages that lie very well in second and fourth positions, that are comfortable for the hand and don't have clumsy string changes. Second of all, you have the option of making simple shifts between first and second, or third and fourth. The shift of one position is the easiest shift you can make. Third of all you learn to think intervalically, in terms of the distance from one note to the next which is the way all advanced players think.
+Raymond Monath Hi Raymond. The first two notes in m17 are slurred. The rest are separate. Then in m 18 the 5th and 6th notes are slurred. That's a very musical way of bowing it. It helps to shape the phrase.
+Roy Sonne Hi Mr. Sonne Can you suggest a way for me to bring out the martele' stroke on the eighth note instead of falling back into the first note with the accent?Thanks Ray

THANK YOU,ITS GOOD TO HEAR THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF BOW STROKE EXECUTED SO CLEARLY
I'm going to do exactly that. I tried it out, watched this video, now I'll play it 100 times better. Thanks!

Ed (adult beginner of 4.5 years).
Your videos are the closest that I would ever come to taking classes in a music academy. Again thank you for your kind and selfless tuition.
Many thanks, Ting Chung Ng for your generous appreciation.
Wonderful teaching points--thank you for sharing! It's amazing how much one can get out of (by putting into) a single etude.

Good evening Profesor Sonne. I am studying Masas study #2 (Sweeping stroke) following your suggestions in your master class video. What would be a good metronome setting for this etude? Thanks for your consideration of my request. Alfredo
92 to the quarter note would be a good tempo.
Do you have video on the etude 14 & 15? Your video enriched my understanding of the Mazas. Initially I found the medodies were not very easy to remember. You did a great job showing us.
Hi James. Thanks for your appreciative comment. So far I don't have videos on 14 or 15. Meanwhile you might find others that you like on my website.
Thank you so much sir,your lessons have been so enriching so very grateful. Please could there be ways of getting hold of these resource materials in the forms of Ebooks?
Big help! Thank you so much.
Perhaps you could play the whole thing through in your videos, maybe at the end or something? The video was extremely helpful, but I'm also looking for a good play-through that I can see so I can, i dunno- you get the idea.

Thank you very much for the quick reply, clarified my doubts.
Good Ideas !
Mr. Sonne are you slurring the eigth note passage at 17 with two note couplets?
+Raymond Monath Hi Raymond. The first two notes in m17 are slurred. The rest are separate. Then in m 18 the 5th and 6th notes are slurred. That's a very musical way of bowing it. It helps to shape the phrase.
+Roy Sonne so again in 20 first two notes slurred so as to create downbow in 19 and 22? (My Schirmer edition is not marked that way.)
+Raymond Monath Yes! Exactly!
+Roy Sonne Hi Mr. Sonne Can you suggest a way for me to bring out the martele' stroke on the eighth note instead of falling back into the first note with the accent?Thanks Ray
+Raymond Monath Which specific measures and/or notes are you talking about?
So m18 0213 2 harmonic a 43 m19 IIIpos.?
+Raymond Monath My preference would be m 18 all in first position. m 19 third pos
+Roy Sonne OK I misunderstood you in the video.
