The violin is like nothing I have played before. Different way of holding the instrument, different posture, different hand motions and above all, no frets or keys to show you where to put your fingers! But we must not go gently into that good night and go headstrong into learning this magnificent instrument.
Why am I creating this? Not so much to journalize my experience with the violin (or whatever) but more to get feedback. What sounds good, what does not. What needs improvement (and how), and what we are progressing nicely on. That sort of thing.
Below you will find either a video or a link to a video of me describing my violin and maybe some sound files that I have created to show status thus far, a week in.
Comments and you are always welcome!

Well, do we get an update?
ReplyDeleteI apologize. I effectively gave up the instrument. I posted this to see if I could get a teacher in the area to teach me, and since time was a constraint, I was hoping they could give me critiques or something. That fell through months ago. I tried to keep up here and there looking for places on line, little success and I just gave up. I should remove this, but who knows, maybe I will pick it back up.
