as part of my efforts to learn to play faster passages, I wrote the one posted below. However, I am having a lot of trouble figuring out the best way to finger it.
If I do a single, large shift I can play most of the notes clearly and with good intonation, but the note before the shift tends to get cut off when I am playing at speed.
However, if I do many small shifts all the notes tend do be less defined, and the chance of bad intonation is higher.
I recognize that in either case I will need to spend more time practicing in order to make it sound the way I want, but I hope that a more experienced violinist can help me figure out which version is worth practicing.
These are my ideas for fingering:
Thanks!
