Spring (The Four Seasons) on violin
The phrase Soloist Violin’s lesson teaches — an excerpt of the melody, not the full-length arrangement — rendered as engraved treble-clef staff you can read on screen or print for the stand, free.
Antonio Vivaldi, Op.8 No.1; public domain (1723).
How to practise this on violin
Spring (The Four Seasons) is written in G and opens on G4, so tune that string true before you draw a bow — on a fretless fingerboard the whole piece rides on where your first finger lands. Play the opening phrase slowly, one clean bow-stroke per note, and watch the pitch feedback rather than your hand: the app hears which notes drifted sharp or flat, which is the one thing a mirror can never show you.
Keep the bow parallel to the bridge and draw from the middle third for an even tone. Set the metronome well under around 100 BPM and don't raise it until you've been graded clean on two takes in a row. When a bar comes back red, loop just that bar — intonation improves fastest on the phrase you keep missing, not on replaying the whole piece from the top. By the numbers, this setting runs 44 notes across 8 bars, from G4 up to E5 in 4/4 time.
