Hi, Temis

Today's Second newsletter is a special one, thanks to a request from one of you! I'm so excited to share my arrangement of "Vertigo" by Time for Three. If you're not familiar with them, they're a Grammy-winning group that completely redefines what string instruments can do. They blend classical technique with a modern, high-energy vibe that's just incredible.

I love this song because it's so dynamic and full of life, and I had a blast arranging it for you. This version is entirely playable in first position, so you can focus on the rhythm and expression without worrying about complex shifts. It's a fantastic piece to work on your bowing and articulation, all while tackling a really cool, contemporary track.

A huge thank you to the subscriber who suggested this! It’s awesome to hear what you guys are listening to and wanting to learn.

By the way, if you’re still getting comfortable with first position, the temitton non-adhesive violin 1st position finger guide is a game changer. It’s a great way to build muscle memory without the hassle of stickers. And if you’re looking for a simple but effective method book, my String by String guide gets straight to the core of what you need to know to make a beautiful sound. For a bit more fun, grab a friend and try some of the Hohmann violin duet practice pieces—they're perfect for developing your ear and learning to play with others.
