That was really good. Beautiful intonation. You've come a long way baby. Remember that ad? Was it for cigarettes?

The one thing I notice the most about your playing id the bowing. You are bowing from your shoulder and if you watch the video because of this your bow is moving up and down the length of the strings. Try not moving your shoulder and use your elbow and wrist, this will give you smoother and more fliud bowing.  You are getting better, keep up the good work.

Thanks Kevin. This was the end of my practice session. My back couldn't take any more standing, so I am lounging on the bed [although I don't have my left hand propped on my knee for the video embarassed]. My bowing is usually a little better, even when my hands hurt. The sore back puts a little more of a monkey wrench into things [EJ I truly sympathize!].
