Swinging Strings @ennisns welcome
Dorothy Conaghan
National Concert Hall String Expert.
Today we welcomed a visitor from the Education Dept at the National Concert Hall.
On this occasion, Dorothy rehearsed tunes with our 4th class pupils, gave them tips on violin-playing technique and spoke to them about the correct etiquette for public performance. She played some fun games to illustrate aspects of good practice in violin playing, one of which involved holding the bows the wrong way round!
