Dionysia, I know you will benefit from the good advice offered. I like the sound of your fiddle and I like that song. The wind made it interesting, too! Thanks for sharing! thumbs-up

 Your right hand pinky should rest on the stick.

Actually, before I started the video, I was very deliberately putting my pinky on the stick. When I started concentrating specifically on bowing two strings, I guess form flew out the window!

My fingers are pretty stiff right now with the stormy weather, and the knuckle on my left middle finger was shattered many years ago, so it is hard for me to hold it bent when I am not using it. I am not the best physical specimen for a violinist, huh?rofl

 The video quality was quite fine, Galaxy 5 is a cellphone right?

Actually I am not sure what you would call it. The best description is that it is a smartphone without the phone. I was looking for an mp3 player and found this instead.birthday_balloonbirthday_balloonbirthday_balloon
