Some Things About Me

          Hey, people. I'm someone who loves the violin very much, and can play it pretty well for my age. I've been playing the violin for 2 years, this year being my 3rd. I know how to play many songs on the violin, like 'An Irish Party In Third Class' and 'Canon In D', all 1st violin! I have so much to tell about myself, like I'm 1st violin in my orchestra. We are at a high school level, and play really hard and challenging pieces. Some pieces, like 'Canon Rock Intermediate Version', I learn with my friend. It is really hard, with triplet sixteenths, and a few times during the piece your fingers feel like there moving everywhere randomly on the fingerboard, but if you practice it a lot, it'll sound really good. In my orchestra, we are currently playing 'An Irish Party In Third Class', and it's challenging. I can play the rhythm correctly and more slowly than the fast tempo. Some of my other mates in 1st can't really play the rhythm, and it goes really fast; I'm not even in 1st chair and I can play it! Especially the shift in the B section, I almost mastered it! Here is a video of a family quartet playing 'An Irish Party In Third Class', played at G major, then transitioning to D major.


                                          

                                                                                     


    Canon In D is a very beautiful song played at D major, and is normally played with three violin parts, a bass continuo, which is paired up with the gigue at the same key. Canon In D was composed by Pachelbel Canon, and today, Canon In D is played at weddings. Here is Canon In D!
