Violin Video Tutorial No. 4A by Mimi Zweig International Music Teachers Exchange Online Media Library founded on the Initiative of ISTEX MUSIC PUBLICATIONS _______________________________________________________ Making a pinky house for the bow hand pinky finger Preparatory tapes: Use a middle tape. If the bow is too long, extend the forearm to find the student's tip and add a tape. Pinky House: This is a little nest for the right hand pinky that helps the student maintain a curved fourth finger. It is created out of tape and positioned above the button on the frog. _______________________________________________________ The video and the text were provided by courtesy of Mimi Zweig, Professor of Music (Violin, Viola); Director, Pre-College Strings Jacobs School of Music, Indiana University Bloomington, USA Further information can be found at: http://www.stringpedagogy.com https://www.istex-group.net
