Maxim Vengerov: Vibrato as a source of colour and expression 

Read the accompanying written article here: www.maximvengerov.com/part-3
In this new educational series "Vengerov's Views", I cover key topics which come up frequently in my masterclasses, chosen to mirror the journey of learning. It all starts and ends with the source, the music, and understanding and telling the story behind it. And then along the way, as performers we must overcome some technical challenges to be able to bring our musical ideas to life.
The examples in these videos are chosen to complement written articles, where I explain the concepts in greater depth. It has been an interesting challenge to write for the first time some thoughts about my approach to music and playing the violin - let me know in the comments what you think!
Part 3: Vibrato as a source of colour & expression
Vibrato is one of the most important expressive tools available to string players. With our instrument, we imitate the human voice and what the voice can do, especially the natural vibrato of a singer. On the violin, we have the ability to control our vibrato very precisely, and to enrich the colour palette we can draw from we must develop the technique of both left and right hand.
In Part 3 of this series I share some thoughts about technical considerations for vibrato of the left and right hand, acoustics, non-vibrato, and using vibrato wisely in service of the music.
