Please, tell me, how can you play without the shoulder rest? Doesn't your violin slip on you T-shirt? If I play naked ( ;P) it's ok, but in a blouse... becomes a horror.
Put the violin on your collar bone. It will take some time as your body is not used to it (ie. you will be sore). You want to make absolutely sure that your left shoulder doesn't rise to 'help keep the violin up'. The violin should balance between your collar bone and your thumb/index finger contact-point on the neck.
your bowing technique for this etude is wrong. you need to grip the string in the beginning of each note, quickly release, and then regrip before the next note each time.
I think this was my favorite Kreutzer Etude . Nop. I am sure this one was my favorite .
You seem a little bit in a hurry .

I play without a shoulder rest all the time. It's easy.
