Accurate intonation is one of the defining challenges for violinists, especially in repertoire like Accolay’s Concerto No. 1 in A minor.
In this lesson segment, violinist Rachel Lee Priday demonstrates a practical strategy for finding and stabilizing pitch by checking notes against open strings.
She also explains why simply adjusting a note is not enough. To truly improve intonation, violinists must pause, listen carefully, and memorize the sound and physical placement of the pitch so it can be reproduced consistently.
