So after reading the self-examination thread I dug my camera out and recorded my practicing. This is the best bit. 
For contrast, the second video is from a few years ago when I first tried to play this piece. I think I've improved somewhat.

Jim I really liked your playing. I For sure can see and hear a difference in vibrato between the two. I also liked your piano track in this one. Easy to listen to Jim! thanks for sharing your playing!

Thanks all.
@Ilona if you look at the video description on YouTube, there's a backing track linked which has the sheet music as part of the video. I just did a screen shot and printed it out. There's also a slightly shorter version on Fiddlerman's music page.
@stringy I've started using Zyex strings on my violin (which is a Fiddlerman Master) and it sounds better than ever now across all registers. They're a bit more expensive than Dominants (which I was using before) but it's worth it.

Thank you, I found it and it's perfect! Sheet music and accompaniment together. I’m going to practice this as soon as I have time for this project! 👍🏻 My to-do list has started to look pretty long... 🤪

Looking forward to seeing it.
Though, do you play the violin as well Ilona?

@Fiddlerman No, I don’t. Check this post I made couple of months ago: https://fiddlerman.com/forum/s.....%9f%98%84/
It was the only time when I played the violin! 😝
I’m 110% a cellist so I’m going to transcribe this for cello!

Beautiful—and thanks for sharing your insight on the progress journey.
Characterize people by their actions and you will never be fooled by their words.

@Ilona - Understood. Thought that you might because of your comment to do the project, and I assumed with my sheet music.
