Yes, I went past 2 hours! It was an awesome feeling. I actually got to practice a little of the Winter 4 Seasons today, all three movements of it (30 minutes). I warmed up with technique for an hour playing my 3 octave scales as usual, same as yesterdays. Practiced the Schradieck same way. I added page 4 to it this time. I then started the Rondo Capriccioso. I was able to practice all six page drilling the difficult sections. It is sounding better and my shifts are getting better but I still have a long ways to go before ever performing this piece. I'm enjoying my practice tremendously. It's never felt so good. I think its because of my new bow. It really makes a huge difference. It makes my violin sound so good.
I ask God for his guidance in my practice since I'm without a teacher right now. He is my inspiration! I am thankful to him for he has opened up time for me to practice, he helped me get my bow and I believe he will guide me every step of the way to reach my goal and to fulfill my mission, whatever it may be, I know this is what I'm supposed to be doing! I love it!! :-)
