"With Nicky" - Developing your sound
Developing and producing sound on your instrument is a journey inside your mind and inside your hearing. To really create a sound you love and are comfortable with, you need plenty of space and peace within your practice; take things slowly, don’t put pressure on yourself and take the time to hear and feel things clearly.
The sound we make is the most personal thing about our playing - everyone’s tone is unique. No two violinists sound the same, nor should they sound the same. Be inspired by other musicians’ sounds, of course, but remember to be yourself. The route we each take to developing our own sound is a voyage of experimentation and discovery: rewarding, completely engrossing, and of course it can also be frustrating at times! But it is about finding a balance and remembering to take the time you need to work on it.
The videos have been generously supported by ESTA UK, MiSST – The Andrew Lloyd Webber Programme, and Oasby Music Group and I am very grateful for their support.
Huge thanks to our media partners Classic FM, The Strad, The Violin Channel and WQXR who will be sharing the videos with their audiences each week when released.
Finally, these videos wouldn’t have been possible without an amazing team: Scott Jaeger, our film maker, Laura Gardiner, our Education Manager, Rebecca Driver, PR Manager and Hannah King, Online Media Manager. I want to say a huge thank you to all four of them for being with me on this journey.
If you have any questions, or you want to know more, leave me a message in the comments.
