Nothing fancy, I still need more practice on this song and I play it too fast. cheerleaderBetter to watch it on small size on Youtube and crank up the volume the quality is bad in big size.

The funny thing is that I did not realized I made that face when I played the song. When I saw it in live movie maker I was all :"omg! I can't edit this it's nowhere in the song I can cut it lol, what the heck am leaving it there." Now you know why my son laugh at me when I practice and makes bad bowing or bad notes. rofl

ROFLMAOWOT!!!!!!

Fantastic Job. I'm stuck on this series, I will have to see every episode. The shows that I watch are, Mad Men, The Office and yours. smile

Try playing the same piece with the opposite bowing direction. It will probably be hard since you are used to this but it will make more sense to you.
Your intonation is good but watch the 3rd finger A on the E string which is slightly high and the 2nd finger C# on the A string. Just a little, not much.

Great job, thanks for the post.

Thanks for the tips FM I'll try to be more careful. I know I'm supposed to start with a down bow but it makes the bowing on the E easier starting with upbow O.o You knoe better then me though I'll try to reverse. Happy you had a laugh! cheers

Fantastic!

heart your videos, NV! heart

Well You know about the wrist =) blink and all said FiddlerMan...

I just want to tell You what my teacher says to me everytime:"Especially in the beginning it's exremely important for your muscles to feel freedom." So she always asks me to take off EVERYTHING from my hands: rings, watches, bracelets ... etc. Though i always forget about the ring facepalm... I saw many violinists that don't do it... But my teacher insists and it's really helpful! Maybe You could try?

Mad_Wed... take off my jewels? *gasps* how dare you suggest anything like that? surprised I'm already trying not to play with my half gloves, works 50% of the time amuse. Ok the watch can go, I was just back from shopping that's why I had it on I usually dislike wearing bracelets or a watch. See I'm making compromise heart
