Impressive, Frits!
This looks like you are warmed up already. Both sound and easy of playing are great!
Nice tactical mug-placement too

Wow, that's fantastic. I picked up a DB a couple of years ago to noodle around on, courtesy of Paulo's lead. (Thanks, Paulo!). I love it, but I'm a self-taught newbie and taking it a a very leisurely pace. The one thing I do have trouble with is bowing. The mind doesn't want to coordinate both hands at the same time, LOL. it looks like you're flying on that board effortlessly. Is your action set up low? I always assumed action needed to be at a certain height to bow properly. |

It's always a trade-off between low action = speed and articulation and higher action = more sound and definition, especially when bowing. Still searching for the ideal setup. I play both in a classical chamber ensemble and gypsy jazz combos, and occasionally in a bigband. The one situation calls for lower action, the other for (slightly) higher action, etc... |
