How to Master Harmony on Violin, Viola, & Cello

Seeing a bowed string instrument as a harmonic instrument will help any player become a more fluent improvisor in jazz, rock, blues, world music, and more....

By changing your practice warm up, you’ll be able to get better faster.

Think about it: What do you accomplish during those 20 minutes besides working on technique?

You can do a lot more during those 20 minutes, while still developing your technique.

My intuitive routine will save time while enabling you to:

  • internalize harmony
  • master fingerboard geography
  • gain comfort with improvisation and other genres of music

If not, I’ll publish a video of myself playing Devil Went Down to Georgia in my underwear on a snowy day.

If you’ve “been meaning” to go beyond your classical training…

Sometimes the best way to improve is to realize you want more.

If you don’t decide to take action and make a change then how can you expect things to improve?

The scary thing is that scenario is more realistic than you may realize.

Just think, how long have you wanted to make a change?

“If you keep doing what you’ve been doing for the past year, 2 years, or 5 years and nothing has changed…then how can you expect the next few years to be any different.”

So do something about it. Take control.

Don’t get stuck in your current patterns. Take action.

Most people view paying for a solution as a cost, yet they rarely realize there is also a cost to doing nothing.

But you’re not most people. You’re willing to grow and improve. Act on it.
