Violin players: Do you have any good songs to practice before entering a chamber orchestra?

Asked by blueberry_kid (5957points) July 10th, 2012

This summer, I’ve decided to really focus on my violin skills, but I don’t know any good music to practice. I’m also doing Chamber orchestra for sophomore year, and I’m a little nervous.

Any advice?
