Hello, just wanted to say, that I am so glad to have found this site! I have always loved music and have played the piano when I was younger. I am 51 now and have always wanted to play the violin, I just love the tones and sounds of a violin. It gives me great encouragement that I am not alone wanting to learn at such a late stage in my life, but this time around I can say, it is just for my joy not for school or someone else's.
