Oh Susannah Module 1.3 Capsule

[Jim DeLillo]

Okay, so I started in February, never having played a violin.
I took a break from the lessons because I felt I was getting ahead of myself.
I took the time to stay with the basics until I felt I could move on.
I am now at Module 1.3, and here is my capsule recording of Oh Susannah.

This will be my benchmark, though I know that I can execute a little bit better.

My biggest issue is landing back at the proper fingering…my hand seems to slip down the neck as I play.
And some bow control.

Let me know what else…

I couldn’t figure out how to load the video without a link.

Jim, great share 👏🏼 Thanks for this post 🙂
your first video attachment worked well, and also the youtube video share. Sometimes the Youtube video will work better for quality and size of video.

Here’s a rough video I made in response to your openness for feedback. Thanks for the opportunity:

I encourage folks to type the word ‘bowing’ into the search bar on FiddleHed, where there are many great resources for this practise focus.

Appreciate your work with this!
