Thanks for clarifying this. What you explained makes perfect sense. I actually play Piano and Guitar also. I’ve been learning the violin for a little more than a year now. I can read music but if you were to take the music away from me I’m almost like a beginner. I’m just now after years of playing piano, and guitar, learning how to improvise and play by ear. It is fun to put in those trills and slides and hammer on’s where I think it sounds good.
