I want to learn a movement of a concerto, and improve my technique at the same time. My weakness is definitely not intonation, but the bow.

I particularly have trouble with bouncing the bow (spicatto).

Any recommendations for repitoire to learn? I had the 3rd movement of the Barber concerto in mind. I have already done the 3rd movement of the Bruch.


thanks

oh, and I have done other concerto movements as well (well, just the Mendelssohn and 1st movement of the Barber)
