Understanding what fingers to use when, what hand positions to use, and what positions to shift to can all increase your skills and knowledge, and make pieces easier and more effective. Below is a link to TeachingStrings.Online, an incredible resource to learn the positions and fingerings of notes and patterns. Thank You to Rebecca MacLeod for this resource!
Enter the site with the link below and choose TUTORIALS at the top. Then you can choose your instrument and which item you would like to work on.
Four Basic Finger Patterns - Learning which pattern is used for which notes
Patterns And Positions - Combines the basic finger patterns with what position you would use. It provides you with a fingering for each note sequence.
Choosing Fingerings - A passage of notes is provided, and instructions on how to choose a good fingering are provided. Great for students who are looking to move around the instrument, and minimize shifting and open strings.
