Must Be Getting Better

My cello-ing must be improving. Received unsolicited compliments on my intonation, tone and loudness during chamber music class last night. I did spend an hour before class working with the metronome for two measures that required playing groups of sixteenth notes. I recently was informed that its better to work with the quarter beat on the metronome. In the past, I had always set the metronome to the smallest increment. So if a passage had sixteenths, I would set the metronome to click on the sixteenths. I was told to not do that.
