The ETR 600 is a class of trains built by Alstom, and are used on the routes between Roma-Bolzano and Roma-Trieste. The train tilts, using Pendolino technology, allowing higher speeds to be maintained through corners without causing discomfort to passengers. The trains are operated by Trenitalia, originally under the Frecciargento (Silver Arrow) branding used for trains capable of travelling between 250 km/h and 285 km/h, In 2022 they were rebranded under Frecciarossa (Red Arrow) after the Frecciargento branding was retired.
The ETR 600 has also been adapted for use in China as the China Railway CRH5 Hexie. Initially 60 sets were ordered, of which nine were manufactured by Alstom and 51 by CNR Changchun Railway Vehicles. Since, another 80 sets have been created for a total of 140, operating across China's north from Beijing to Ürümqi.

My trick for learning vibrato was to practice off the violin. You gotta learn to relax your first knuckle joint, so typically if I was on the bus of something I'd be gently pressing one of my left hand fingers into something hard, and trying to gently wiggle back and forth, just to try and get used to that sensation. I did this for a bunch of time each day, since you can do it anywhere...
Once I got the hang of that in all four fingers, I just kinda brought it to the violin and it sortof worked. And congrats on third position! It was a big milestone for me, lots of scales in there and I still wouldn't say I'm comfortable with more than a few flats in it, but it's getting there.
Thanks for the tips!
