Holiday 2021 “Ask Me Anything”
Grab your warmest sweater and join me (and my nutcracker friends) for a rollicking 90 minutes of violin talk, with the help of a live YouTube audience!
I took questions and demonstrated on so many essential topics, including:
- Playing without a shoulder rest
- Audition preparation
- Security of intonation
- Dealing with performance nerves
- Achieving a variety of articulations
- Bow arm setup
- Flexible vibrato
If you missed it, here’s the #AMA in all its glory:

Scales: The Road
to Repertoire
Even if you’ve never played a scale before, violinist Nathan Cole of the Los Angeles Philharmonic will guide you through scale routines that meet you where you are, and build progressively alongside your playing.
