SECRET PROJECT!

SECRET PROJECT!

I love having secret projects.  Normally I have a group I share the deets with since it's usually something I'm making but this time is different, it's something I'm learning to play.

The title is a bit of a hint but I kept it deliberately short in case anyone I know IRL stumbles on this.  I've only put in about an hour or so tonight and I've already got the first 7 or so bars well enough I can hit the notes with my left hand with my eyes closed!

Unfortunately, my bowing is still insanely screechy and I haven't been using a metronome so my speed is probably quite inconsistent.

What's amazing to me is how useful having a rough grasp on the Circle of 5ths is though and even my limited guitar skills as well.  I have a long, long way to go, clearly, but I'm already enjoying this so much more than I've ever enjoyed playing guitar or ukulele (not that I've hated them of course).

Hopefully I'll be able to learn this in the next.... Two weeks or so, at least enough to roughly show it off.  The real test will be in about 3 weeks.  No pressure!  I promise I'll post a video of it once I show it off though :)
