It’s interesting  to discover that the fingering is
so important for the violin.
It’s at the same time a way to get robustness
and a way to reach speed.
G is played with three fingers on the D string.
We use two fingers for the F#
and only one for the E.
With this traditional fingering
you memorize the notes and their position
on the fingerboard.
It’s not only a note, it’s also a movement.
And this knowledge is particularly precious
for the folk songs.
They are parts of our civilizations.
They have been passed on from generation
to generation as a sound
that we have to keep in mind
and to never forget it.
Even with only the string D
like in the Morning Dance
which is a Slavic Folk Song
or in the Good King Wenceslas
which is a Welsh Folk Song.
So we listen also to the fingers
of the civilizations.
