  • This is Easy O.O memorizing it in one day! :D

  • i remember how excited i was when i actually played the whole song :')

  • My teacher wants me to play this song <3

  • My teacher made me do an exercise (this was my fav 1 to do) it was called 'pinky pushups

  • Also to help improve the bow hold, she should do some exercises to strengthen her hand. I still remember the first time I had to do those exercises, I was in first grade. (I am young music professor now) (just graduated from college)

  • She needs to move her elbow slightly forward, so that her bow is more pointed toward her rather than away. Also she needs to apply more pressure with a quicker stroke of the bow, giving it a more bold sound. And yet another is tho tighten your bow and use some rosin!!!

  • I am currently working my way through Suzuki Vol. 1. I have been playing violin for two weeks. But you know what...even I can tell that her bowing technique is terrible! She is sliding it up and down the strings vertically and not straight bowing. Is she really a teacher? MY SOUND is better than hers!

  • @thevickizzz i start playing for like 20 days, and it doesnt sound bad when i play carefully and following the tape on fingerboard. the first 15 days of practice open string sounds quite harsh and glassy .. really bad sound! i use a rubber mute so i dont disturb my neighbors (and dont hurt my ears) but after knowing how to bow correctly it will sound way much better. i cant say im making a "good sound" on the violin now, but prety much same sound as in the video

  • How long does it usually take to make a good sound in a Violin?

  • I just love this song! I played it on my violin once at school and it was so easy!
