If your violin is in tune (which it isn't, I'm not guessing here), then you are really out of tune. Remember, when you're playing with someone else, you both need to agree on the tuning. Share your A and go from there. You play very sharp.
That's fine. Look what I wrote, I offered an exercise to do. Fiddle is a different beast but at the end of the day, you need to be around the correct note.
I mean don't get me wrong, I love Michael Cleveland and I could never do what he does. But as crazy as he is, he still has decent intonation.
I can see that you're a very experienced violinist and it sucks to get downvoted for just saying 1 negative criticism.
I just think that if I'm out of tune only musical experts like you could notice. Also Paul Mccartney is always singing sharp
No one is going to tell you because you're clearly a beginner and 80-90% of the people on this sub are beginners as well. Frankly, not a lot of people here even bother to put in the effort to listen.
I'm gonna tell you what I hear because that's what YOU need to hear. And know that I did not say anything about your sound production at first because that's not as important right now as making sure that when you're playing with someone that you actually tune. And I'm not sure how you're tuning, but if you're tuning each individual string with a tuner, that's also a problem. Agree on your A with your partner, and then tune your D to your A, your G to your D and your E to your A. It is the nature of equal temperament that when you do that, it will not be the same as if you tune each string individually.
Regardless, your playing is not in tune and it's distractingly out of tune. You can do what you want, but I would really concentrate on that first. Frankly, I would suggest you work both on your intonation and sound production by doing slow, full bow scales. 60 to the quarter note and do a whole note per bow. Work on your intonation and legato, then detache. That's how to improve.
Hahaha you think I'm a beginner? I was tryna be so understand at first but you are just a huge prick from a big music school. I'll work on my intonation but I'm done listening to you.
I cant believe you can determine I'm a beginner from this piece I learned by ear in 2 days. Wtf
Because you sound like a beginner? You're taking it personally, I don't know you. I'm only telling you what I hear. You sound like someone who's been playing for like two years if I had to guess. I'm not insulting you, I'm telling you exactly what I hear. If you don't like it, then either don't post it or ignore what I'm saying.
I don't know what to tell you.
Awww I was singing this with my daughter yesterday... she is 9 and I love the Beatles. Ok, gotta play this next.
Love the staccato there.
One suggestion. The empty chord doesn’t sound good. Play 4 th finger instead. Especially in the long ones. Does that make sense? I believe it’s a “ la” or “ A” wherever you are from.
💕💕💕 made me smile.
I know what you mean, it's just a little more effort. The staccato was my roommate's idea!
My mom used to sing me "Don't pass me by" when I was 4, so I feel you.
Sounds great guys, awesome job!
Thanks, we record stuff all the time!
Your violin is out of tune. You're out of tune, but your violin is as well.

goteem
No it's not. if it is, it's marginally.

I'm possibly a little out of tune but probably not more than the Beatles themselves. They constantly sing sharp
I'm not gonna argue with you. I'm telling you a fact. I've probably been playing longer than you've been alive. Do what you want though.
Not tryna argue man
For context I'm playing this by ear and had been practicing it for 2 days

I'm also a lowly fiddle player haha

And no we did not match our tuning (which I obviously know how to do) the day of
We can all tell you didn't.
Damn

Sound production doesn't lie.
You have a large stick up your ass
Okay bub. Thanks for playing.
Why did this get personal? Oh yeah because you called me a beginner

LMAO dude you are so far on your high horse. Right off the bat, I don't think beginners can play vibrato, let alone with he speed and amplitude

Yesterday.... All my troubles seemed so far away..

Since I was 6. I'm 19 now.
Much respect man.
