There are takeaways here whether you're interested in studying a) nuances of style pertaining to R&B Violin music or b) general composition and improvisation:

For example, here's a lot of material that can be reflected upon in these new videos:

🎻General🎻

⦿ Keep phrases simple (prior to adding ornamentation)
⦿ Distinct phrases of varying length (w spaces at end)
⦿ Practice creating within a context of structures (taken from my Free improvisation Course)
⦿ Express the chords
⦿ Record and listen back
⦿ Be conscious of the melodic rhythm

🎻Specific🎻

⦿ Create Harmonic tension and release via mix of blues scales
⦿ Create Rhythmic tension and release via groupings of triplets
⦿ Tension and release created by playing in front, in the middle, or in front of the beat.
⦿ Use your ears. Learn by listening and playing back.
⦿ "listen for the Spirit"
⦿ Play intentional rhythm in the pocket
