[Menvi-discuss] Violin vibrato

[SClark6144 at aol.com]

I would think the shoulder rest is included in the  rental.  It was when I 
rented one.   If it wasn't, it should have  been.  Go back and tell them 
they forgot to put one in the case.   Also in the case should be rosin for the 
bow.

Hi  List.
I've started to pick up some violin again after some years.
I've  rented a violin, and did a course, learning songs by ear.
I've searched  online and Youtube how to add vibrato. But it's all visual!
Can someone  explain to me, maybe off-list how exactly to do it, wrist 
movements,  etc?
Also, if someone has suggestions and tips how to hold the violin  without 
using a shoulder rest. I didn't get a shoulder rest when i rented  it.
Good or bad, i don't know.
But my left arm gets sore and my hand  gets a bit sore too holding it in 
that position.
I know i'm not  supposed to bend my wrist.
Some tips would be appreciated.
I'm actually  a pianist, but wanted to learn to play the violin since 
it's such a lovely  sound.
At the moment i'm still getting used to placing my fingers on the  right 
spots, but i'm getting that right  now.

Thanks,
Dewald.
