Group 1: Vibrato Beginners
Welcome Group 1!
We're going to have a great time working on your vibrato over the next two weeks. To get started, I recommend watching this introductory video about vibrato, which is the archive of my live stream "All About the Vibe" - I like to consider it something of a "cheat sheet" that summarizes a lot of the great ideas we have from different artists on the platform, and their thoughts on vibrato. If there's a certain artist whose ideas really resonate with you about vibrato, or who show a technique you'd like to develop further, then do a deeper dive into their course!
Next, download this PDFTWI #3 - All About The VIbe - Opening Up Your Vibrato and get started with the exercises in it! Here is an instructional video to help out with it: https://youtu.be/d813Kf11IXU
You'll have 2 assignments during this TWI:
Week 1: any time during week 1 (November 18-24) post a video of yourself playing doing these vibrato exercises.
Week 2: on November 28 or 29, post a video of yourself playing the exercises for week 2 from the booklet - either a scale using non-stop vibrato, or a piece of repertoire utilising vibrato (you may use the piece provided in the booklet, or something simpler that you've been working on!)

Howdy folks, I just wanted to check in on how you're all doing - I'll be recording and uploading the next video shortly, but wanted to make sure I address any questions/concerns anyone here is having first - maybe I can address it in the next video I send here!
And please remember to share your progress videos here. -
Hello again everyone, here's your week 2 video and an updated PDF with musical examples added at the end! For beginners, I suggest sticking to the long-tone scale.
TWI #3 - All About The VIbe - Opening Up Your Vibrato - week 2
Please note - the PDF is the same as what was originally posted above, but with added pages. I have also changed what was originally posted above for this new version.
