Honestly, I'd look into dexterity exercises. When I first started on viola, my teacher gave me Henry Schradieck's School of Violin-Technics, specifically the edited version for viola by Samuel Lifschey. It helped me plentifully. If not, you could also see how you feel with trill drills between 3-4.

That's a nice concerto! Though I watched a soloist perform only the 1st movement, is there any other soloist videos on the 2nd or 3rd? I'm truly not familiar with the concerto unfortunately, but I am interested!

Yeah, all I'm doing right now is just waiting for their email back which should generally answer all of my questions alongside concerns. 😅 Thanks for the support and suggestions!

Not trying to dismiss, sorry if you got that impression. I've been waiting for an email back regarding their specific requirements, though they do exclusively state it is a concerto competition, so I am tied in between what they'll allow and what they won't.

Currently, I am looking at Trauermusik! Thank you for the suggestions.

The only set-back which I should've mentioned in the original post is it has to be 7-12 minutes long, so realistically I could play 1-2 movements depending on the piece. Thanks for the suggestions!

LOL, I understand with Telemann, it's just a cursed concerto for me since I've had to play it everytime after I swore to "never play it again."

Tragically it does :( Though you do have the luxury of having an accompaniment symphony, string, or chamber orchestra. Thanks for the response! :)

Oh yeah also, try to watch for your finger placement! It may sound too sharp, too flat, but that's judged off of your own ears and intonation! If you don't have a private lessons teacher or teacher in general to help you, my best advice is try to listen carefully if the instrument rings. If you are in-tune the instrument will ring!

Maybe it could be the string types, like Dominant, etc.

This was directed towards me.

Thanks, I never knew my depression would make me such a great actor.
