Also, there are two semitones between the middle finger and ring finger, and another two between the ring finger and little finger.īy complete chance I’ve decided to study the triangle. There is one semitone between the two fingers. Third Position: The index finger and middle finger are next to each other. Also, there are two semitones between the index finger and middle finger, and another two between the middle finger and ring finger. Second Position: The ring finger and little finger are next to each other. When we use this hand position, we can play more comfortably. Also, there are two semitones between the index finger and middle finger, and another two semitones between the ring finger and little finger. There is a semitone between the two fingers. There are four hand positions which are most frequently used:įirst Position: The middle finger and ring finger are next to each other. After pressing the strings, there should be only one mark on each fingertip. The positions of the marks should not be shifted while playing the viola. What’s more, we can see that there are marks on our fingertips after pressing the strings.
We should keep in mind that the movements of lifting fingers up and down should be very fast. It is also an effective way to train our fingers. Also, when we are pressing the strings, we can lift our fingers up and down like hammering. In this session, Professor Wing Ho will share his idea about the left hand movements in viola playing.Ĭontent of Wing Ho’s lecture is as follows (edited in first person): Train the FingersĪs I mentioned in the second session, we can train our fingers by bending them like scratching an itch. Also a lot of our songs are heavily riff-based, so if I can easily break it up into labelled segments instead of writing out the whole thing that would be ideal. Naturally, the replacement should find their own way to play it and make it their own, but giving them exactly what I play should be a useful starting point. Is there anything you all have used in the past that's good for the job? Ideally something that's fast to use (we have a lot of material!) and doesn't make it a pain to notate things like hammer-ons/pull-offs and slides and other bits of articulation. I've used plenty of notation software before, but none of it has had tab support and I don't want to sacrifice fingerings and articulations or risk them not reading sheet music well(/at all). So the easiest solution seems to be just tabbing out my parts for every song, and maybe also doing a home recording of just the bass alone. I may be leaving one of the bands I'm in soon and if so I want to make it as easy as possible for them to replace me, but none of them know any of the bass parts and I'm not sure how well I'd be able to commit to teaching the replacement myself.
