Lesson 4 was today. Worked on bowing, fingering and phrasing on Sicilienne by Franz Kreisler. Also looked at a Concerto by Teleman. Practiced up and down bow stacatto's and after following the Galamian method, I have no idea why some people have trouble with the down bow stacatto. It doesn't seem that difficult to me. Also worked on Loure bowing, which does seem a bit difficult to me. It is a bit hard to make it so it doesn't sound like stacatto.
