thanks, same room, same setup with camera (phone). The first clip is my 15.5 viola. The second video is with the 4/4 violin. I see where my bowing is off. I seem to adjust fingering for the smaller instrument, but not my bowing.

Love this tune https://youtu.be/GvFOiig5RKM?si=2utqlHhSLbGoPK5T

Curious if I want to (or should I?) Add double stops to notes I play on the G string can I use the open A (or open G on Vla) or do I need to add fingering to that higher string? Thanks

I love this tune. I can hear your intonation improvement from the first video unless it was just the drone (which I love now that I learned about doing lessons this way) that was distracting me.
