100 days of practice - Day 73 ????

Progress on Dont Op.38 – 20 Progressive Exercises, No. 5. This phrase took 3 days of hard work, 3 hours of practice each day. ???? I did NOT expect it to be this hard and I hated not completing the recording the first two days. But as they say, “all in good time”. Sometimes when we don’t see a tangible result immediately, we might feel like we haven’t improved but there are underlying mechanisms at work. I just trusted the process and today, I’m very satisfied with the result.

What challenged me the most was making all the notes heard in one long bow and all of them to sound more or less equally clear. The second hardest thing was jumping from G to E (at 00:12 ????‍????) and doing it smoothly without falling out of tempo. I probably did hundreds of takes of just that part. But that’s violin playing for you! 92 BPM is still a slower tempo for this etude but it also helps me exaggerate my movements so that I can be more comfortable when I practice in the tempo it’s written (Allegro moderato 112-124 BPM ????????‍♂️)

Feel free to comment if you have any questions. If you have any friends that play the violin, don't forget to share!
