Violinlesson

August 20, 2007 at 9:02 PM

A popular "uncle" amongst us boys, when we were young, and armyfriend of my father, who is now 70, visited me.
We ate near the iron bridge near my work in the village where I live.

Before that we visited a friend of him who was violinteacher of 68 in a village in the neighboorhood.


I got a short lesson, more a remark, from him specially the movement with your fingers, when you change from bowing up to bowing down.
After this short lesson I played music with my "uncle" while we played a cd of that music.

Ok man--share that point about changing bow directions--quit teasing....

I have always maintained after someone pounded into my head, that the right hand should stay stable yet fluid unless purposefully doing colle, or colle based martele.
