This is the $250.00 lesson I have needed for a long time. The clarity and completeness and the examples have given me plenty to sink my teeth (or fingers?) into. I have wobbled and warbled around with double stops for a few years. Trying to learn from books has beenfruitless torture, lacking the suggestions shown here.
I am sincerely grateful for your gracious, expert way of teaching. BTW, I am playing on viola and find everything in this lesson fully applicable. Thanks for a better than face-to-face lesson.

Super helpful !!! Thank you so much for all the tips!!! It helps me to speed up my double stops practice. Especially helps me to speed up the rhythm that I had a trouble during a shift or string cross.

Great video. Excellent tips and will try all of them especially that singing with an open string! You made me smile!

[@PracticeBlitz]

TY and I'm so glad you liked the singing 😜 - I almost cut that one out but a friend convinced me otherwise!

Hi Susanna, very useful! #5 “One line…” really helped me slow down and hear where the switching problems were occurring.

I’m so excited about practicing this morning. Thank you for making this video!

[@PracticeBlitz]

Yippie! That's the best compliment ever. TY

[@vaviola]

Excellent video! Incredibly helpful! I will share this with my students, and we will incorporate your 10 ways in double stop sections of their solo and etude literature. Thank you!

TY Helen!

Thank you 😋

[@binahdelille724]

Thank you so much for this video. It's very very helpful. A question please: which method you suggest for learning doubles stops ?

[@PracticeBlitz]

Glad it was useful! My favorite exercise book is Sevcik Op. 9 - that has almost any combination of double stops and if you learn a little bit at a time and make your way through even half the book you will notice a big difference when you get to double stops in your repertoire.
