All About Vibrato - Workshop for Violin LIVE at Tonebase

Vibrato can seem at times to be a mystical and elusive thing — even feeling like an all or nothing affair. However, digging deeper we can see the true challenges that face us: combining flexibility and strength into one feeling, not ignoring sound production and how that interacts with vibrato, the coordination and ear training required to feel the swing, and of course sensitivity to different repertoire and musical effects.

This live stream is available for Tonebase members and all those who sign up for the stream. For more information, see the Tonebase website.
