Well done today Tharoon. We have worked on moving our fingers into different positions today. We discovered that 2nd finger can move between a 'low' and 'high' position.
Please could you practise the patterns we looked at today?
Do the following on all your strings please:
0 1 low2 slide high2 3 high2 slide low2 1 0 (you can add 4th finger to this if you would like an extra challenge)
0 1 low2 3 low2 1 0 (again, add 4 if you want to)
We then had a little look at how our other fingers might move around too and found that all our fingers have (at least) 2 choices of position!
We had a go at:
0 low1 high1 low2 high2 3 high3 4
Remember, if you're finding 4th finger tricky to reach, you need to adjust your posture. Chances are, your thumb needs to be long and slightly lower down. It should touch your violin just on the opposite side to your thumb nail.
