No, almost never. I don't like metronomes...

But I have bow control issues, especially on nocturne n°2, I have trouble playing the notes in time (or when I do get it, it's mostly luck).

Even just the first 5 notes are actually hard for me. I'm playing notes 2-3-4-5 on an up-bow (not much choice, right ?), and the string crossings make it hard for me :

Have you tried playing without slurs first, then adding the slurs afterwards?

Without slurs it's definitely easier. It's more of a bow control problem when I get close to the frog. Guess I need to practice in the lower part of the bow.

It's been some time, I've been playing less and less, and not visiting much either here or on FM.com… shame on me.
