If Ray Chen says "there's a lot of notes here", it must be a crazy part which requires fourty hours of practice!

[druidsongevergreens]

I just want to thank you for all you provide/offer the violin players at home. It’s clear you had great teachers and spent years practicing, and I’m grateful you pass some of that wisdom/experience onto those of us who have neither 🙏🏻

[HowdyThere]

I NEED TO HIRE RAY CHEN AS MY TEACHER 😂❤

When practicing i also recommend playing every other note! Then switch around
Also playing one note 1.5 longer and the other .5 times as long alternatingly helps with keeping the rhythm too!

So, it's almost like your bow is taking a breath?

[marlenecruz]

Your concert was amazing last night in Ottawa at the NAC! Thank you. Good luck again tonight!

Great to now! I have an audition this saturday and am struggling with exactly this problem - articulation during the fast parts... So thank you so much! 🥰👍

[SihleBambihle]

My toxic trait is thinking I could pick up my violin rn and do this flawlwssly

[meab]

ray chen looking confused at sheet music is possibly one of the most terrifying thing i’ve ever seen.

[Ramberta]

thanks for the motivation to practice!!!

[IvoneGoldstar_beauty]

Amazing! Hope can play like you on future. 😊

[janemarriott]

Thank you so much! I just used this and it helps a lot. Any advice for crashing on the string??

[tsuyuhane]

You should tell that to the people that does "the fastest playing of flight of the bumblebee."

[philip]

Yes, there's a run of violin players doing Vivaldi lately just a touch to fast and not pulling it off too well . I haven't commented about it to them, so I'm doing so here.

Ray there's no doubt TT you are good. I'm a new fan of yours. I like the way you express yourself, is so clear, not that I know the difference. But I can hear the difference with your lifting! And I have to say that I'm distracted by your cute molds esp those in btw your eyes, 😅😅😅😅

[remember]

any suggestions on how to lift and drop the bow without it jumping? :´)

[AhrimanHJ]

Ray Chen saying you need a 1 frame lift

[Luiss-ixrf]

Hello Sir. May I know what your opinion about Roman Kim is?? Has he changed the way the violin is played?? Is his approach to playing violin a revolutionary one??

[Andrew_Dunlap]

How do you lift and retake without having it bounce on the way back down to the string? I’m struggling with this on bass after switching from French to German bow
