Pinchas Zukerman teaches Daniel Khalikov by videoconference in 2002. Maestro Zukerman in Ottawa; Daniel at Manhattan School of Music in NYC. See more videos at: www.pzviolin.com/
I am working on this very issue at the moment, and I appreciate the student’s questions. And I likewise appreciate Pinchas’ patience and directness with his communication.
I SO agree! I would be frustrated as HELL with a student like this! Pinchas Zuckerman is one of the all time greatest violinists, and the kid NEEDS to listen. He should be honored!
You have no business teaching if you can't deal with a student who mistakenly "thinks" he understands a concept. Of course the student is frustrated and fights back like any spirited Colt would to being saddled and bridled. But those are the ones who can go the distance, 3 & 1/2 Miles like the Kentucky Derby, or take the Impossible leaps required in Steeplechase. You are only a sheep herder, not a trainer of Thoroughbreds.
I think ia more fault of the usual violin teacher of the kid, probably the teacher accustomed to that student that he is THE BEST, and no one are at his level, so probably is part of the arrogance of that kid, I have know a lot of students like that, and always is the same situation, their teachers put ideas on their minds.
So at one point, the student thinks that this is wasting his time? Pretty unbelievable! Ask yourself: do you sound like Zuckerman? No? Then this is not wasting your time. I think the piece that they then work on is the Bach Courante from the 2nd Violin Sonata in b minor.
great tips, going to try the resistance band out for myself! I always teach a similar concept of pointing the screw of the bow outward rather than thinking up and down. The difference is that up and down you get to the tip and the elbow wants to go to the side and you lose that powerful sound. You can hear the difference from the start when PZ first plays it is fuller and more secure and resonant, Daniel was sounding really nice toward the end as well!
To be playing at this standard at this age and having lessons with one of the greatest of our generation, you can imagine how many billions of dollars the kid’s parents have. Otherwise, he must have a very special relationship with the maestro.
It's crucial to educate posture. U fortunately sometimes students don't get it until later, but you need it eventually if you want to get this guys level (in the Met Orchestra now) among other places?
That is what this achieves!!! The concept of "play parallel to the bridge'" is a starting point mentally, but because of the difficulty in playing the violin we must continue to give different ways to actually practice this.
Well, in my opinion, "being parallel" is not the aim of playing the violin. The point is, how to produce a good, deep, nice, beautiful, flexible but powerful sound.
I don't think Pinchas was a push-over when he studied with Galamian and Delay. You need a strong personality and a questioning attitude. Thick skin too.
Anyone who thinks this is unusual pushback from a student isn't a top instrumental teacher! It's 50 percent persuasion, and drip drip of change over months/years. Try persuading someone that for their whole life they have been walking wrong and they need to throw their foot in a different way, would take ages to sink in, and the person would struggle to walk for a while. Students hate to feel uncomfortable because they are distracted by short term goals
yea well, the thing about this instrument is that understanding is not enough NOBODY IS BORN PLAYING THIS INSTRUMENT RIGHT it's not a natural feeling thing pinchas zukerman is a saint id a taken a two by four to him
Too stubborn? Only the stubborn break through... I know Daniel too since he was little, and he is now the first violin in New York www.metorchestramusicians.org/daniel-khalikov/
I feel uncomfortable wasting so much time if I already understand that! .... this guy does not deserve the lesson at all! I would have left immediately
omg, this kid......I can't believe he said that....while the greatest violinist is giving him a great lesson....!
"you know the language but you are not speaking it"... wise words for zukerman!
Respect to Mr. Zukerman for remaining so patient with such a difficult student…I would be having a blast taking a lesson with Pinchas!!
maybe there's no such thing as a difficult student?

This is a fantastic and wonderfully helpful lesson. Thank you for sharing it.
BRAVO MR. ZUKERMAN THANK THANK THANK YOU YOU YOU
Maestro,Thank you So Much !)
Such a great ‘real’ teacher he is!❤❤❤
veryveryvery nice lesson , Zukerman is so kind.

I knew him when he was in NY. Total jerkoff.
It's the Corrente from the Partita no.1 of JS Bach in b minor
@@revshareglobal7334 Really? Like, how bad was he?
Beatfull!!!!
That stubborn kid is now performing with leading orchestras throughout the world!
fico maravilhado como as técnicas como ele ensina fantástico
very valuable instruction for us new people to learn from
great tips, going to try the resistance band out for myself! I always teach a similar concept of pointing the screw of the bow outward rather than thinking up and down.

Poor Pinky, the great violinist has to say "Trust me!" to persuade the boy, please replace that boy with me, I need a real master class!!!
Kids that age don't know what Life is about, much less music.
spiffy, classy and stylish!
nice

"Just do it, just do it. Like Nike." XD
Whats that boy studing???
it takes a lot of discipline to be good in anything. This boy is probably too young to understand that.
Bach - Violin Partita no. 1 in B minor , Double
the kid isn't stubborn. he's interested.
Can anybody tell me which one and who is the author of this "Etude" that they start working in after the Bach? Thanks.
It's the next movement the Corrente (slowed way down)
Ten years later we never heard of this kid. Maybe he should have wasted a bit of his precious time...
doesnt look like a video conference, unless its a big ol screen. If it is a VC then that technology is bad ass! better than skype at least! ha ha!
God damn, that kid is stubborn. What's the Bach piece? Is it a partita?
yes, partita 1 second movement
It's really difficult to "educate" one's posture. I think the problem is that he's been playing in that way during many time....
It's crucial to educate posture. U fortunately sometimes students don't get it until later, but you need it eventually if you want to get this guys level (in the Met Orchestra now) among other places?
can anyone explain why this exercise is helpful as opposed to playing parallel to the bridge?
That is what this achieves!!!
The concept of "play parallel to the bridge'" is a starting point mentally, but because of the difficulty in playing the violin we must continue to give different ways to actually practice this.
If you try it you will understand.
Well, in my opinion, "being parallel" is not the aim of playing the violin. The point is, how to produce a good, deep, nice, beautiful, flexible but powerful sound.
Is it really a video conference when you're both in the same room? lol
aren't you looking at a video right now? :P
I don't think Pinchas was a push-over when he studied with Galamian and Delay. You need a strong personality and a questioning attitude. Thick skin too.
I give a similar restraint exercise to my guitar students!!
I think nobody understood what he's really asking
This guy does not have respect
I mean, what song is that?
is the Second movement a "double" of tha partita 1 in B minor for violin solo by J.S Bach

the student is so stubborn saying he understood but actually he is not doing it
2:02 did he say "thats vengerov" ???? LOL
yea well, the thing about this instrument is that understanding is not enough
NOBODY IS BORN PLAYING THIS INSTRUMENT RIGHT
it's not a natural feeling thing
pinchas zukerman is a saint
id a taken a two by four to him
stubborn
2:20 God forbid FAKE
Yeah he sounds nothing like kreisler! And he has the audacity to talk about kreislers bow arm
Nothing like Kreisler, because he's way too arrogant. Which Kreisler never was.
Bof
His too stubborn to became a good violinist..
This is a friend of mine. He is currently in the first violins in the MET. Your argument is invalid.
Too stubborn? Only the stubborn break through... I know Daniel too since he was little, and he is now the first violin in New York www.metorchestramusicians.org/daniel-khalikov/
Your too stubborn to became a good english..
