Maybe just a little stiff, which is letting you slide your bow past the fingerboard, then drawing it back to the bridge. I can't really critisize a sound like that though.

Great job, beautifull playing.

Not at all - I was too caught up in the music!

btw, if it is a Lazer, can you post more pictures? and some detail pictures, like the purfling(if it's real or painted), because i'm selling my Lazer "student" violin, and buying a new Lazer "professional" violin, and i have my doubts about it....

cheers! - ⁰ℨ

Interpretation/dynamics super.  I did not study your technique, I was too busy listening !

When you come to a fork in the road, take it.

Yes, I am no expert but you do need to be a bit more flexible in your wrist. Watch the FM videos especially on bowing, hes got a good technique. By the way, sounded fantastic!

What I see is at the end of your downbow you need to move your wrist to get that last bit of stroke in. On the upbow you look very relaxed and good flex of the wrist.  When you are at the tip of the bow you run out of room using your elbow and start moving your shoulder which changes the angle of your bow on the strings. Try to move only your wrist at the end and this will keep the angle of the bow perpendicular to the strings.
