Recital

I had my first violin recital this past weekend. I felt really silly playing since I've only been taking lessons for a few months. But for the most part it went ok...except the part when I started shaking and messed up and the bow went flying out of my hands...ok that didn't really happen, but I did get more nervous than I thought I would. I am loving the violin though and I just want to keep getting better...so don't laugh at the video. This was after the actual recital since we forgot to take the camera with us.

Awesome job, Mich. I love the little vibrato at the end of your piece. I noticed Lexie keeping to the beat, beebopping around, in the background. Congrats on meeting your other goal. Barry

Good job! That's so cool that you just decided to pick up something new and do so well with it. I can't imagine having the time to practice much running after two little kiddos!

Yeah mich way to go. That sounded awesome. Burn is learning how to play and I am going to too!! I want to either learn the violin, piano better, or guitar. This makes me want to learn the violin even more. Good job.
