Violin Group Lesson

Today in group lesson their teacher had them partner up and work together to play through Twinkle Variation A.  One person held the violin and fingered the strings while the other one did all of the bowing. When she told them what they were going to do I had no idea how they would manage it but after a few hesitant notes they all just played. Now I'm not saying it was the best they've ever played but they made it all the way through the song without any real problem and without any harm coming to any violins. With Arowyn & Teagan being partnered up with each other there's never really any way of knowing how that will turn out much less with a delicate instrument in the balance. So I sat and watched with baited breath until it was over when I could smile and at how well they'd done, and breathe again.
