This Scale Habit That Transforms Your Violin Playing

Click below for a FREE 7 Day trial to Amoroso Violin Studio https://membership.richardamoroso.com... 🎻 Learn how to actually hear and tune your violin scales! In this video, I share why so many students struggle with scales and how to fix it using the simple 1-4-5 method + a tuner drone. Stop guessing and start building consistent intonation that stays in the key. After a recent violin music camp where most students couldn’t play a clean scale, I’m showing you the daily “ear flossing” routine I wish I had learned earlier. This is the same practical method I use in all my group classes at the Richard Amoroso Violin Studio. ✅ What you’ll learn: How to use a tuner drone to train your ears and hands Tuning the tonic (1st note) Tuning the dominant (5th note) Adding the 4th note for perfect intervals Applying it to an entire scale Building the habit of attentive listening Timestamps: 0:00 Intro 0:09 Report from violin camp 0:53 Violin Hygiene 101 1:16 A Major 1:38 Tuning tonic 1:46 Tuning Dominant 2:02 Tuning 1 - 5 - 1 2:41 Tuning 1 - 4 - 5 3:58 Tune the entire scale 4:47 Staying in your lane 5:03 We do this kind of practice in my group class 5:21 Attentively listen Do you brush your teeth every day?
