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.

Look forward to hearing more about your new journey.

Welcome Cynthia.

Wow, we'll soon need to have a project just for us over 50's.  Lots of us learning now.

 

If you think you can, or you think you can't, you're probably right.
