Played Schroeder #44 both separate bowing and 4 slurs; and also 2 slurs. Main problem was keeping the bow off the fingerboard. B said to slow it down, do separate bowing and really pay attention to where the bow is. Keep the bow parallel and maintain a heavy arm. Intonation was good as were fingerings.
We played the Vivaldi Allegro movement from the Concerto in G Minor. I played 2nd cello; B played first. Took it really slow; actually sounded pretty good for a first run through. B made some bowing changes; start with two downbeats on each of the opening measures where G is the first note in the measure. Will keep working on this as well as adding some more measure to Schroeder #44.
