What to Do.../ Update(s)

June 10, 2012 at 6:21 PM

Now that the school year is over and I'm not a part of any orchestra, I'm having some trouble figuring out what to do when I pull my violin out of its case. I mean, I have private lesson stuff to practice (We're finishing up a piece I wrote) and I have a binder with a lot of violin music I plan to record for YouTube, but I don't have any orchestra pieces to practice daily. Any ideas of things I can do to continue to play the violin and still practice daily? Thanks in advance!

Oh, and if you check my YouTube channel here, you can see any videos I post over the summer of violin-playing. I've long stopped my 'A World Without Color' project, but I may start that up again. I hope to put up a video today or tomorrow morning, actually. Anyways, please enjoy!

Oh, yeah, also, I need to get my violin fixed. My A String is a little broken, and there's a rattling noise coming from the inside. Hopefully I can get that taken care of soon.
