Unlike instruments like the clarinet, the oboe or even the cello, the violin and viola are not particularly ergonomically friendly. The reason is historical: way these instruments were played when they were first devised, and understanding how the human body reacts to less-than-natural technical demands is helpful for teaching. Topics will include teaching how to play with a “straight” bow, the bow hold, and the shape of the left hand.

The webinar will be held via Zoom and meeting details will be sent to the email registered 3 days prior to the Webinar.
