Every serious violinist knows that scales reveal everything: the truth about your intonation, bow control, and sound.
In his Scales and Arpeggios: A Comprehensive Guide on tonebase, violin virtuoso Igor Pikayzen transforms scales from a routine warm-up into a powerful diagnostic tool for mastery.
In this lesson segment, Pikayzen explains how to find the exact center of every pitch, using slow, even bow strokes and careful ear training to let overtones “ring” in tune. He shows why avoiding vibrato exposes the pure essence of pitch — and how subtle adjustments can make your tone bloom with resonance.
Whether you’re refining your daily scale practice or rebuilding your technique from the ground up, Pikayzen's full tonebase course will help you cultivate the kind of accuracy and awareness that defines professional-level playing.
