I wish I played half the good at 15. Keep up the good work. Your bowing sounds great as does your vibrato. Stick with it..
Yes, I just turned 15 not too long ago.

I'll start working on my intonation more. Would playing scales with a drone from a tuner help? I'm not done working on this piece, so over time I'm sure the intonation throughout the whole thing will get better. I'll talk to my teacher about it also. It is a challenging piece, for me anyways, but I'm glad I played it. It was a really fun piece to play.

Thanks for the kind words
