Lovely playing John, sounds like you have a good ear for intonation and you look like you’re enjoying the instrument. Do you play double bass as well? Thanks for sharing your video.:)
John sent a video of him playing Frere Jacques via Youtube:
He asked for some feedback aswell.
Here’s a rough feedback video I made:
Main points:
Great technique you use, producing a nice sound
-Bowing skills are looking and sounding good
-fingerboard hand looks efficient
-Overall, your making great music with the fiddle
Tips:
-Metronome practise – alternate with and without metronome – specifically for half notes (2 beat notes)
-Drone practise – target D1, E note on D string as well as A1, B note on A string – use drones for these to support getting a precise pitch – target the specific area in tune that has these notes, even utilize while practising single notes and scales, also try having drone playing throughout playing tune
