I’m having a hard time thinking of my fiddle goals as quantifiable. Other than the number of tunes I have memorized, what can I count? I guess the speed of my vibrato? Or the speed of a tune?

How would I measure the quality of my tone? Or the use of double stops? Or my ability to improvise? Or do I just count the amount of time I spend on these things?

I’ll have to try Garage Band, Jocelyn. The sound is probably better.

I also did the 50 year hiatus thing! Played violin from age six to twelve, and then not again until age 62. Just a short break. LOL.

I actually recorded both parts with Zoom, admittedly not the best for audio production, but it’s what I had.

I was impressed by how smoothly you carried on after mistakes.

Beautiful. Love the speed variation and the ornaments. I’ve been working on this tune. It’s kicking my a**, but getting better incrementally.
