Taught by renowned violinist
David Kim
Most orchestras have one or two excerpts that they will always ask for, and for Philadelphia, that's Beethoven's First Symphony. With the help of David Kim’s personal annotated scores, you can approach this excerpt confidently. He shares many of his own bowings, phrase markings, and articulations, highlighting the variety of different strokes present. Kim stresses the importance of fingerings that are comfortable under pressure, and why he tends to avoid certain positions.
