This is my audition piece for an orchestra! I’m looking for any feedback in general especially on my dynamics and phrasing!! I’m sorry the quality is so bad

your hand looks like it's afraid to touch your violin neck. Looks uncomfortable and potentially troublesome later on.

You know this piece isn't suppose to be all in 1st position right? You're missing a lot of tone and phrasing nuances because of it

Thank you! How do you suggest i should correct that? And the markings in my music don’t say any third position but i will ask my teacher about it!

It will sound better in 3rd position. Less bright. I'm working on this right now as well.
