In this week's class: A famous musician said “What I have achieved by industry and practice, anyone else with tolerable natural gift and ability can also achieve." Can you
guess who? Today we
explore how to play harmonics with an exercise by Dounis. Please see resource page for course material.
Concomitant
to Gwendolyn’s Scales Flow, this weekly 30-minute get-together
highlights some of the violin repertoire’s best-known Exercises, Etudes
and Caprices. Each week’s focus is on a new example of the staple
repertoire. Gwendolyn explores ways to achieve better results from daily
practice by revisiting the foundations of playing, and includes
anecdotes from legendary musicians as well as stories analogous to
learning. Gwendolyn offers preliminary exercises, explanations and
achievable goals, injecting meaning and impact to what is oftentimes
considered the most dull and dreary moment of any practice.
These sessions are interactive. There will always be time for you to
ask questions. These are all-levels sessions, suitable for intermediate
and advanced players.

Our community classes are based on a system of dāna. Dāna is the practice of cultivating generosity. At The Exhale, multiple hours of learning are given each week in the form of community classes, where the price of a class is recommended but not imposed. Those who teach these community classes volunteer their time and offer the revenue generated by it to faculty members who are in financial need during this unprecedented time in our collective history. We thank you for supporting this eco-system of giving and receiving!
