These are great and this was vey enjoyable and informative, thanks! (To hear a great doom minuet, check out Black Sabbath's "Lord of This World", in which Tony Iommi has us literally dancing with the Devil! ;)

Beautiful intonation Sylvia!

Thank you. I have been trying to learn the second violin part and you really explain it. It's helpful if you play slower maybe the first time around for people learning the parts and then pick up the tempo. Your video is very helpful . Your daughter is magnificent. I'm getting better with time. I really appreciate you.

What a handy video. I'm currently trying to pass on my sparce knowledge of violin to my wife and always have an eye open for ways to explain things - in fact I might be going on a hunt for the music. Well done Sylvia too. We saw you in Edinburgh earlier this year just before the world went all wrong - A tremendous Tchaikosky and Mrs C was particularly impressed by your Pibroch on the Matthew Hardy (my old violin teacher from yesteryear had one). Hurry back.
