Liked on YouTube: Kashmir, by Led Zeppelin (violin lesson)

Kashmir, by Led Zeppelin (violin lesson)
Kashmir, by Led Zeppelin, has some classic rock riffs, and the modal and cinematic nature of the solo sections make it an ideal vehicle for rock violin. In this violin lesson I go through each section of the piece, suggesting different approaches. To learn more about rock violin, and the techniques demonstrated here, see my book Discovering Rock Violin, published by Schott. "A great achievement...fantastic book"- Mark Wood "I love the fact that your book features a lot of great players in the rock world who, many of whom I have always felt were underappreciated. This is something I was considering doing with my book, but instead I decided to focus on theory and techniques, which your book covers extensively as well. ...Thank you again for writing a book on a topic which is long overdue" -Joe Deninzon "If there's a more entertaining pedagogical book than this published in 2012 I'd like to see it. Chris Haigh celebrates the violinist in the rock band in an offering as full of laughs as a Spinal Tap concert" -David Lasserson. The Strad There is also a MusicGurus video course based on this book http://bit.ly/2PeVvVP I have numerous fiddle book published by Schott; To look at or buy these and my other books, go to bit.ly/31ZWmgm ________________________________ Exploring Jazz Violin USA https://amzn.to/3i3qPPM UK https://amzn.to/2HjUpnt Beginning Jazz Violin USA https://amzn.to/3cr5Cy2 UK https://amzn.to/3crqEwy Exploring Folk Fiddle USA https://amzn.to/32YFUhc UK https://amzn.to/33ZpxR1 Discovering Rock Violin USA https://amzn.to/3kONQHV UK https://amzn.to/2RY88Tb Exploring Klezmer Fiddle USA https://amzn.to/32ZgYXd UK https://amzn.to/3mRKdCX French Fiddle Tunes USA https://amzn.to/330NeJa UK https://amzn.to/363850D Hungarian Fiddle Tunes USA https://amzn.to/32Xu7ji UK https://amzn.to/33YnsEO ________________________________________________ I have two sets of professional subscription online videos Exploring Jazz Violin, produced by MusicGurus https://bit.ly/3iVwt7p , The Academy of Folk, which includes a fiddle foundation course, and an Irish Fiddle course.

I have been using this for at least 20 years and have found it an invaluable tool. Recently they have greatly expanded the "Real Instruments", which enables me to reproduce, for example, the authentic Honky Tonk band sound here, or others such as Gypsy Jazz quintet, bluegrass band, Western Swing, Delta blues, and hundreds of other niche styles. It comes for Mac or PC, and in lots of different sizes and versions.Check it out with the links below!
