 I have wanted to play for several years but people talking about how hard it is to learn scared me off.

 

I finally gathered up enough courage and I bought a violin from a local shop and I've had 3 lessons in 3 weeks.

 

I live in N. Florida and I thank you for the advice I've already read here.

 

I look forward to learning how to play, its not as bad as I was lead to believe.thumbs-up

Hi, screeeech.  I just joined , myself.  Lots of good information here.  I hope you'll post a video of yourself playing when you're ready.  The feedback is very helpful.

I've learned so much from my mistakes that I've decided to make some more.
