PRINCIPLES OF TECHNICAL TALENTIn the exam room, there are five definable techniques of talent, that differentiate between the successful, and unsuccessful candidate.1) Active listening that creates technique, as opposed to passive listening that does not control the fingers.2) Using the forces of nature with the bow, as opposed to fighting the forces of nature with muscle strength.3) Controlling the changes in directional momentum, as opposed to flailing in fast passages.4) Exploring the logic of invention and logistics, as opposed to repetitive practice.Co-ordinationCapturing the co-ordinated moment is the most important ability of talent. It is the enigma of pedagogy. |

“Violin Diploma Technique, The Principles of Talent” – This is the title of my published book, and the topic is on the content. I am an AMEB diploma examiner. My book addresses the reasons why so many candidates technically struggle, in the diploma exam room. It explains the intuitive techniques, that guarantee co-ordination and intonation at virtuosic level. There is also a thought process, that defines when, and how to listen, as a fully teachable technique.
