I like the light and breezy feel of it.

Play the violin again;
let hands that flit so lightly
Maybe you should break on flit- it's much more interesting than the adverb "lightly".
slip a sigh.
I like the sound of the phrase, but I'm having trouble imagining a violin producing a sigh. A sigh seems breathy and atonal to me.
Fold forward into flesch
I had to research this. If it's not a typo, then I found a Carl Flesch who was a violinist and teacher, who also has a style of chin rest named for him. I'm not sure he's well-known for his compositions.
and scoop the ecstasy;
sweep low to bow
"Bow" with its double-meaning here is extremely good. It can be read coherently as either homograph, though you give the reader a hint with "low".
to music’s tempting ways.
Your tender notes will soothe the strings,
I rise on softly wafting wings
in air so thin, bells scarcely ring,
but there I hear the sky.

Hi svan.
Confession. The line breaks are completely pseudo. Very populist. This is an old poem which I only just rediscovered in the cassette case of a Durham Cathedral Concert recording (2009?) of The Lark Ascending by Ralph Vaughan Williams not Flesch Believe me, a violin can sigh!
Yes. Flesch developed (?) a chin rest for the violin which I am informed was not particularly comfortable but allowed the violinist to almost "grasp" the instrument twixt chin and shoulder giving increased freedom of movement due to enhanced stability. This freedom was apparent in this particular concert as the violinist swooped low and rollingly to get the "flight" tremolo into the music.
I can see her now.
Back to the line splits. This was originally written as one long paragraph. I am not an adherent to the line break=punctuation discipline (to over dignify). I broke the line where I did to add a little poignancy to "slip a sigh". You are as correct as me...just a different viewpoint
Thanks for your comments. Everything gets eaten that's put on my plate.
Best,
tectak.
