Simple things...

My teacher suggested that I try slurring the scales while I was playing them, two notes at a time. It took me a little bit to get the hang of it, but it is surprisingly fun!

I just did an hour of practise, and a good half of it was spent on scales. Then I started being silly and playing the entire scale up and down on one bow as fast as I could. Fun game, but probably not the point of the exercise...

  1. Having fun is part of the experience! and mastering scales with all sorts of bowing combinations and speed gives a great foundation for playing in general. making up games to make practicing more fun is a good thing. thanks for sharing!
