Violin Hold Trick: The Sensation of Relaxation

After viewing this, you might be interested in a video simply called Mischa Elman, where the great Elman plays Humoresque, by Dvorak. If you'll pay special attention to the way he sets his violin against his neck at the beginning of the clip, you'll notice that he's doing something much like this very technique, letting gravity help support the instrument. Give it a try and see if it doesn't help you relax the shoulder and neck. Good luck!
