Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

I hope to improve my vibrato. I hope to increase my shifting skills. I hope to increase my level of sound, I hope to gain confidence to play even louder. I hope to be able to educate, and support other new or younger violinists. Mentor or Instructor of lessons, camp, class, or workshop will evaluate the student artist and report back to Region 2 Arts Council.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Based on the outcomes I listed above, I achieved all of them. I learned how to do vibrato accurately and un-painfully. I also practiced shifting a lot which made me feel more comfortable playing in different positions in tune. I practiced dynamics, making me able to play louder and quieter when I play certain songs. Also by going to fiddle camp I was able to learn improvisation, and play pieces with younger musicians which made me feel more comfortable helping people when they need help.
