Gavotte Gossec Violin self-learning
I’ve been trying to teach myself the violin for the past 5 months and found a new passion. This is my favorite piece in the Suzuki book (still on book 1) and the most difficult for me to practice. I don’t even know if my staccato bowing is legitimate, haha. To any violin players out there, I gladly welcome good advice and suggestions (bowing, posture, non-string-hacking staccato technique.) Thanks to professorv, Ben Chan, and many others for their great violin lesson videos. Self-learning violin is truly tough but would be impossible without their generosity.
