Thanks for the nice comment! Yes, most teachers do the same but its actually easier for a left handed person to play violin left handed, just as it is for a right handed person to play right handed. Its easier to control the bow with the dominant hand.

Congratulations on a lovely performance! The left handed violin playing is especially interesting as I have never seen it done so well before.
I teach all of my violin students, including my left handed students, how to play the violin right handed.
