The best integration of how to work at vibrato including its use in different musical styles I’ve encountered in my years of struggle with trying to gain a good vibrato.
Dear Dr.Lynn, Awesome presentation. I love especially the part on relaxing all the way from the shoulder. I've realized that I tend to tense-up sometimes without realizing it. :-)
Thank you for addressing the “stop / start” or “delayed vibrato.” We see and hear that even in some of the best concert artists. I don’t think it’s always a conscious choice they are making. If we feel secure enough with our technique that we can start the vibrato immediately at the beginning of the note, we can then make choices to delay the vibrato occasionally as a special effect, rather than unconsciously starting the vibrato late on almost every note. The solution you demonstrate using double stops while crossing strings is a very clever one. Thank you for this excellent video!
Thanks, Garrett! I catch myself doing stop-start vibrato at times too! Tricky business being a string player, isn’t it? 😅 What does the Jedi Master do for this issue? (Or perhaps Jedis don’t ever have delayed vibrato! 😂)
Violinna Hi Inna! Thanks for watching! 😊 And yes, I’ve struggled so much with tension over the years too. I’ve had to train myself to monitor chest area tension - it helps!
Hi Dr. Lynn 😊 Thank you for this video, I am self-learner in violin and I wonder why can't I do vibrato correctly 😅. I've just learned here in your video that I've been doing all the 5 mistakes everytime 😊 so thank you. Now I know what to do..
You are so welcome, Vincent! I’m happy to hear that the double stops and arm relaxation concepts are particularly helpful. In fact, putting both of them together would be an even greater training exercise! 😃
Happy to hear my tutorial helps, John! Take it slow with the exercises! I've seen so many people learn it incorrectly and then they have to spend $$$ to unlearn their incorrect habits.

So, what to do with my thumb is my focus at this moment. This is my first vibrato practice. I've read Leopold Auer's chapter mostly criticizing overuse of vibrator. Written in the 1930's, I suppose he was focused on earlier composers. Now I'm finding a specific vibrato at the end of a note (often at the end of a line), played lightly in gypsy jazz (and wide vibrato). I learned to play by ear starting about 8 years ago (mostly Appalachian tunes and whatever is played at our weekly open jam, and now I'm attempting jazz with a guitarist friend) and am learning to read music, my scales now include the third position, and now, vibrato! Thank you...if you actually read all this...nod your head. 😊

Thank you for this!! Really loved the details on losing tension. I also like that you have your video really close to your hand to see what you are doing. My problem is the delayed vibrato- stop and go..as I dont know how to fo continuous vibrato.
Deborah Kim Hi Deborah! 👋 Thanks for watching and I’m glad you found some helpful things in the video! Yes, continuous vibrato is definitely something I need to work on often as a continual reminder.
I was shown doing vibrato by rolling from one side of the finger nail to the other. Is this the same as having the finger curved up then flat back motion? can you please clarify thank you
Hi Sam, it sounds similar but I believe there’s an important distinction between the two movements. Rolling your finger from one side of the fingernail to the other necessitates your hand to be more supinated (your palm turned more towards your fingerboard). Once you start rocking your hand in a vibrato motion in this position, you will be essentially doing an ulnar deviation (your wrist bending so that your pinky goes towards your face) to rock the hand. Personally, this feels quite awkward, potentially risky for injury, and more difficult to me. The movement that I described in my video tutorials is more of a flexion and extension of the wrist (kind of like waving hello and goodbye to your own face), while at the same time allowing the distal joint (the very last knuckle closest to your fingernail) to be flexible. I feel that is a more natural and safe movement for vibrato as opposed to trying to move the finger from one side of the fingernail to another. Hope that helps!
As a beginner, these tips are great but as someone just beginning to attempt vibrato, that would be nice to see how to actually do it, i.e. the mechanics of it.
Dear Dr. Kuo, I have an extremely SPECIFIC question that I have not been able to find an answer to in other videos. The question is, "what are the slowest and fastest speeds of vibrato that are musically usefull?" (obviously, too slow would sound like a sad moan and too fast would sound like an angry hornet.) --When I practice vibrato with the metronome, I use each click as a Dotted Half Note and measure the "back" and "forth" of the finger in SIX 8th notes (yes, I know most count in 16ths but this a problem for me). --So if you (or I) are playing SIX "back and forths" per click in a piece, what would be the metronome range to work towards? Yes, aesthetically realize it varies, but I am looking for a number range that I can use to gauge my progress. Thanks!

Merry Christmas, Grant! 🎄 I play on a Vincenzo Postiglione (1888). And yes, a really simple and very helpful exercise for the fingers is to encourage flexibility in the distal joint (the very last knuckle in the finger).

Wonderful insights Lynn, thank you for sharing your insights on vibrato. One tech point of feedback, the sound of "water moving" distracted from the content....felt like I needed to pee! Bri
Good question, Daniel. The best way to be able to answer that question is to develop ‘Bon goût’ as they say in French: “good taste”. “Too much” vibrato could mean: 1. Too wide of a vibrato so that the pitch becomes uncentered 2. Vibrato that is not appropriate to the dynamic or character or style of the piece Experience, understanding different styles, working with a coach, and listening to great artists are the best ways to develop ‘bon goût’ in terms of applying the appropriate amount of vibrato. I hope that answers your question!
@@danielngui3941 Continuous vibrato (vibrating on every note without break) is usually a desired thing because otherwise, you get the "Start-Stop" vibrato mistake that I mentioned. Feel free to watch my TH-cam Short on how to work on continuous vibrato: th-cam.com/users/shortsMjIkV9r-u_8?si=VMl5VDF75S7KZ7Oy
The purpose of working on your vibrato (i.e., adding variety and expanding your range) is so that you develop a much wider palette of colours to choose from when you play. Depending on the phrase, the repertoire, the dynamic, the emotion, and the nuance you want to convey, you would be able to move effortlessly from any amplitude, speed, or intensity of vibrato you wish. If one just has a “one-vibrato-fits-all”, then they limit themselves to just having one type of sound or expression.

Very Effective Teaching like Beginner Violin Student. Thankyou So much Teacher (Madan)
The best tip was the hand print exercise for me and relax the thumb
. That's so much.
Relaxing the thumb is still so helpful to me as well! I’m so happy to hear it’s helpful to you too, Suellen!

What does it mean being too much vibrato? What's your opinion Dr
Good question, Daniel.
The best way to be able to answer that question is to develop ‘Bon goût’ as they say in French: “good taste”.
“Too much” vibrato could mean:
1. Too wide of a vibrato so that the pitch becomes uncentered
2. Vibrato that is not appropriate to the dynamic or character or style of the piece
Experience, understanding different styles, working with a coach, and listening to great artists are the best ways to develop ‘bon goût’ in terms of applying the appropriate amount of vibrato.
I hope that answers your question!
@@violynnkuo one more question, does too much vibrato means I play every note vibrato?
@@danielngui3941 Continuous vibrato (vibrating on every note without break) is usually a desired thing because otherwise, you get the "Start-Stop" vibrato mistake that I mentioned.

Thanks so much, Johanna! Which tip helped you the most? 🙂

Thanks, Jaimy! 🙏 Hope your vibrato is going well!
Is it compulsory to know all the vibrato techniques? Can't one find his or her own niche?
The purpose of working on your vibrato (i.e., adding variety and expanding your range) is so that you develop a much wider palette of colours to choose from when you play.
Depending on the phrase, the repertoire, the dynamic, the emotion, and the nuance you want to convey, you would be able to move effortlessly from any amplitude, speed, or intensity of vibrato you wish.
If one just has a “one-vibrato-fits-all”, then they limit themselves to just having one type of sound or expression.
