7 Day Jazz Language Bootcamp: Day 3, Transpose up a minor 3rd
This is where it gets tricky. Today we move the line up a minor third, from D to F. If you fancy a huge challenge, keep going through all four: D, F, Ab and B. Don't worry if it takes a whilse. Having to think about it is the whole point, and it pushes you to find different fingerings rather than just moving a shape around. The lesson is here: https://www.skool.com/jazzviolin/classroom/c0d4b6c9?md=da797b0f8ba642b2b6ed840b15f511b2 Once you have it in F, or in as many of those keys as you fancy, comment DONE below, or post a video of one or all of them here.

Done. That took a bit of time. I've tried in in the 4 keys, 2 registers each. Here it is complete with background hum, along with intonation and timing inaccuracies, but it's certainly been good practice.

Has anyone compared Anytime with Transcribe? Are they much the same?

Jazz Language Bootcamp: Day 2
Today we take the line up a fifth to D major, using the open strings as our friend, and learn it up an octave too. That gives us a new fingering without having to think too hard, and gets us ready for tomorrow. The lesson is here: https://www.skool.com/jazzviolin/classroom/c0d4b6c9?md=5babef1cb1fc42c7a4eee1f6b25e7f7c Once you have it in D in both octaves, comment DONE below, or post a video of it here.

Day 2 in D
7 Day Jazz Language Bootcamp: Day 1, Learn The Line
Today we just learn the line in its original place, over a 2 5 1 in the nice violin-friendly key of G major. If you did my 5 day challenge, you might already know this one. In the video I show you how the line is built and what each note means against the chords. The lesson is here: https://www.skool.com/jazzviolin/classroom/c0d4b6c9?md=943a82ab67044bf78bdc79520e8e9ef9 Once you can play it in G, comment DAY 1 below. Or record it and post the video here so we can all hear how you're getting on.
