And I’m also a bit of a perfectionist and have GAS so I’ll likely be chasing after the best winter rosin (for me) until I find it. In that video, she mentioned that sometimes people use bass rosin in our climate to get grippier and more responsive performance. I also saw a violinist/teacher on YouTube that lives in my city and she mentioned that in the winter, even something like Hill Dark (which is the one I have and preferred by people locally) isn’t enough. I can tell when my bow slips because of my bowing or when it’s just not gripping the strings. It was fine being covered up and just mixing in. The red box violin recipe did not need to be washed out of my cello bows when I tried it. There is one bow I have not tried with it. The bows will not dig into the strings enough. That’s why I’m asking for stickier/grippier rosin recommendations. The red box, violin recipe, will not work with my cello. The melody has been adapted and used as a basis for many tunes and styles of music including Red Wing, a popular Native American fiddler tune from the early 1900's, and theme songs from many John Wayne films from the 1940's 1970's. I then purchased a dark rosin (Hill Dark, which is also recommended by Lora Staples), which is stickier and grippier, but somehow I’m still not satisfied that it’s the best out there for me and I think there can be even better. The full title is The Happy Farmer, Returning From Work. As I mentioned in my first post, I started with an amber (or light?) rosin and it was fine, until it got colder and it just stopped working. I haven’t played very long for sure (2 months of noodling). I would love to try the Andrea Solo as so many people rave about it but we don’t have half cakes here locally and I’m hesitant to try such an expensive rosin at the moment. I have other rosins that I used in all three that I liked, but I had to put them all away for now.Īnyone else have experience with multi-instrument rosin? So it varies by person, bow, how you bow, in-house climate conditions, from what I can tell. I think the Holstein Premium works great with all three, cello, violin and viola. Both work with my viola, although the red box violin recipe is better with my violas. The bows will not dig into the strings enough.

It always made its way to be the boss of the rosins on the bow, so to speak. I had to clean it out of the bows hairs, actually. With the Arcos that I use, the cello version, blue box, is too sticky for my violin. It is supposed to be for cello, viola and vioin. How should you address this? By finding a new teacher.It depends in the rosin, bow, in-house climate. When the etude is assigned, an even minimally competent teacher should clearly explain the point of the etude, work with the student on executing that technique correctly during the lesson, and provide instruction on how to practice the etude during the week to reinforce that correct execution and turn it into a habit. Every Kreutzer etude focuses on a specific technique or two. No instruction on how to play each etude.This is especially true once you get to the Kreutzer level and the etudes aren't short. Generally teachers will assign just 1 or 2 etudes. Most students do Wohlfhart, possibly Kayser, and Mazas etudes first. People typically start Kreutzer after several years of taking lessons. Kreutzer is considered the bible of intermediate violin technique. Thanks to hogit for the r/violinist old Reddit logo! Send a modmail and we will review and approve your post as soon as possible.
