| Pizz perfect! |

| Martin with blue violin |
We learned how to
hold our violins comfortably in playing and
rest position, how to stand while playing and very important how to bow to our audience.

| The 'Roadies' |

| All together Pizzicato |
We warmed up with some
finger exercises. Next we learned the name of the lowest string (G) and how to play
pizzicato to a steady beat of our favourite song from Mary Poppins.
Finally we were introduced to other members of the bowed string family , Cello and Double Bass .
NEW WORDS PIZZICATO PITCH
