plan on playing it for my student recital in a month or so.

i play french bow.

anyone ever perform this one?

if so, did your triceps hurt after every practice session like mine does? :help::help:

playing the fast parts around 132 BPM. if i turn the metronome off i like to bring it up a bit faster for the repeat thru the end to hype it up.

its a fun piece, regardless. any reccomended recordings, tips on performing it without dying of exhaustion or dropping my bow?

:D
