Hi

Hello. This week I had a bad violin week. I could not remember the notes and continued to play the wrong notes. Even during Can-Can I kept messing up and making my violin squeak. It was very embarrassing to have people cringe when I hit a note that squeaks. I do not think I will keep playing the violin after strings class. It is not the instrument for me. I think I will stick to the Guitar and the Saxophone. Good bye.

Another Week Gone

Hi. This week I was still having problems with bowing in the right place but I think that I am slowly fixing it just by playing. For my test thing, I have decided to play Can-Can. It is challenging but I think that I will be able to pull it off. Miss.S said that doing challenging songs will increase my mark. I can't get the part that switches from B to F# to G to E. I keep playing D instead of E. It sounds terrible and I keep doing it. Any suggestions? Until Next time. See ya.

Week 2

Hello bloggers. I had a new problem this week. I kept on playing over the finger board and too close to the bridge. This causes my instrument to squeak. It throws me off of my groove when playing. Unless I start off with a squeak, then I just can't really get into the groove of the song we are playing. Another problem that occurs is that when I play, and I get thrown off of the rhythm, I wait and listen for the double bass, Sam is listening to me so it throws him off so we lose 1/3 of the class. I am really excited to play the new song with the 4 part harmonies in it. It will sound so good when we finish. Until next time bloggers, good night.
