To get more concrete: let's assume that we are talking about a fiddling
piece like the following unfinished fragment I found lying on my hard
drive. The fingering instructions are not necessarily wholly complete
or accurate since I actually don't have a violin in my house and did not
have one at the time I wrote this down.
But you should be able to figure it out nonetheless. In the first
measure, there is a already a certain position/fingering divergence
because of physical necessities. Still, this is a rather
straightforward shuffle. So how would you want to have the first
measure look in tablature?
A scan or photograph of a sketch is fine.
