    Practiced G scale two octaves. added variations of 123, 1,3,2,4,3,5,4,6,5,7,8.

    Worked out bowing on Away in Manger in harmony section – slurs on eighth notes and down bow for effect.

    Tried playing softly on harmony section.

    Ran through entire piece twice with recorded accompaniment.

    Need to cut my nails.

    Joshua, definitely a big step posting videos. Your bow is straight across the strings …a very good step. Keep it up!

    Good job, Mary. You’re exactly right, lower E to upper E, and all the work on the E string….a rough song to perfect. Looks like your picking it up quickly! Have fun at the jam. Currently, I attend a jam once/month and lean on I/IV/V back-up chords mostly, till they “force me” to lead something.

    Learning this for participation in our local jam session. Still needs more work. Got to get the Es in tune – a big stretch from the lower E to the upper E.

    Love this on the fiddle. I’m going to give you the same advice a fiddler recently gave me. “You got to play louder.” I am very timid with the fiddle but I’m trying to make big sound these days.

    Keep up the good work.

    Hey Patty, never heard “Midnight on the Water.” Very nicely done, bravo! I liked the slides, and tempo, as well!

    Owen replied to the topic Terrible timing and out of tune but I still had fun! in the forum Student Videos 4 years, 11 months ago

    I like how you made some variations 2nd time around, and it didn’t sound much out of tune to me. It’s easy to speed up in the second half. Very enjoyable to listen to!! Thanks, Jeanette.

    Because I live in a “Data Desert,” where High Speed is but a dream; I was forced to go to Pole Green Park in town, where data is abundant to listen and watch Office Hours with Melinda on my Iphone. She is a very creative teacher, making a classroom experience that fits her audience on that day. On this day, there weren’t many questions or comments…[Read more]
