Re: Week 4: "Samba Strings Showcase" @Dale Needles very impressive, it looks like a very difficult piece and you made it looked so easy, very clean and precise. I can hardly hear any squeak at all. What a great study.

Re: Week 4: "Samba Strings Showcase" @Marilyn Blodget beautiful! Beautiful tone as usual. Sometimes it is worthwhile to pull out old favorites as during practice we might forgot why we fell in love with the piece in the first place and…

Re: Week 4: "Samba Strings Showcase" @Steve Pederson really well done! It is already sounding very good. Fluidity is just a matter of time. It is very long and crazy hard piece and to get it to this in matter of weeks is amazing.
