  • maybe it's just me but you look kind of ...worried in the beginning?

  • @grunniesrawesome Not at all. Just enraptured by Barber's breathtaking composition.

  • I agree. I tend to play things too fast. I* like Glora Schmidts tempo. However, Hilary Hahn has a good recording which takes a faster tempo.

  • hmmmmm....

  • David, you are a wonderful violinist. Like Sarah Chang you make the violin sing and speak for you. You show so much humility in yourself as you play so beautfully and I think the sky is the limit for you, well done !!

  • Great! You are so cute, I want to adopt you! :-) Try to not interrupt vibrato on long legato notes. Amplitude of vibrato should be smaller in high positions. Try to learn other vibratos, from elbow and finger vibrato.

  • my ears hurt.... work on the intonation in those runs!!

    but nice expression in some parts.

  • David looks sad while playing this...
