I found one in my closet I had forgotten I had. Someone gave it to me like nine or ten years ago. I think I accidently broke on of the strings and I didn't want to play anymore so I put it in the back of my closet. Now that I have rediscovered it I want to learn how to play. It's no use to me if I don't.
Sorry for digging up an old post, but I'm taking lessons myself and am curious how you are coming along with your violin?
I was thinking about getting my daughter into violin, but then i thought that the piano might be a little easier right now since she's only 2 1/2
i would so love to learn violin or fiddle... would be one more thing to try and keep me busy during the day.
I used to play violin. I played for five years but I just lost interest and then I tought myself guitar and now I'm teaching myself bass guitar.
I don't think you can go wrong learning any instrument. Anyone thinking about learning violin should give it a try by renting one from an instructor for about $20 a month. Take a few lessons as well but make sure you click with your instructor. That connection is crucial.
