Long, Long Ago-- "long, long ago; long, ago" 10 times a day.
Practice the hops from A1 to D1 and the movement into it.
Remember that the song in sections 1st ending (A); 2nd ending (B); Jumps (C); 2nd Ending (B).
For warm-ups/exercises.
Each past song 1 time. Must be played well or it needs to be repeated.
Current piece--or the piece just finished--three times. Play May Song 3 times.
10 bow circles--tip control is prime!
Stop rolls--short down up on each string. Stop/Roll. Down up on next string. Stop/roll. Repeat to G string and back to the E string. Should sound short and not flowing or connected.
Violin Taps--hand goes all the way up the shoulders or beach of the violin. Thumb rests in the curve under the neck/shoulders connection. Wrist reaches straight up and over and tap the beach on the furthest side of the violin. So the opposite of this photo on the violin. Remember, this will keep the wrist straight and pointed away from like the photo below.
T--I was thinking it is really helpful to see you do some of the moves that are hard to explain, maybe the next time we get together I can Print Screen a few more shots to help us remember the right way to do things and we can post the photos here. :)
