    Lovely playing and video setting, Ann 👏🏼 You seem very calm and connected with what you’re doing.
    Is the tape on your bow marking the point between the lower third and middle third of the bow? That seems like a neat method.

    Great points, Malcolm. I’d also be interested to hear generally how often and for how long Joanne plays as well 🙂 The commitment and dedication shines!

          Hello,

          What joy I experience in you playing this, Joanne. I love creating full use of the lower notes on Fiddle, and transposing in general. It’s a fulfilling endeavour 👍🏼 You’re well on your way with this.
