Is it possible for some practice sessions to do more harm
than good? I think that’s the path I was on this evening with my practicing. So
after about 25 minutes, I pulled the plug. Aborted the mission. Stick a fork in
me, I’m done. Let’s call the whole thing off. Get the hook.
My bow was skating all over the place, possibly due to yet
another variation in the new bow hold. (I still believe in the new bow hold; I’m
just in another state of transition with it.) As I focused on my bowing, my intonation
didn’t just go off the rails, it went over the cliff. On passages that I’ve
been playing decently for a good week or two (or more), I was suddenly stinking
up the joint, big time.
Tomorrow, Tuesday, is my off day. Hopefully on Wednesday I
can Ctrl + Alt + Del.
