Hi everyone!  My first post at Fiddlerman.com!

I started learning to play an instrument 3 years ago.  I picked a viola because I really liked the sound (and didn't feel like carrying a cello on my business trips!?)  Aside from weekly lessons (sometimes more,) I learned A LOT by watching YouTube videos and playing along with whatever I could find.  Special thanks to Fiddlerman himself - I learned quite a bit by watching your tutorials!

Anyways, here's something I came up with recently.  I was having one of those days - stressed and upset.  So I played all night (24/7 access to a warehouse space, so no need to worry about bothering neighbors,) and something just clicked.  I played my heart out like never before. 

I call it, "Twinkle Twinkle Criminal Star"...  Enjoy! :)
