When I first joined here a month ago I said I had played as a child... The years have obviously taken their toll on me...
I should have just said I can hold a violin and bow...
So in essence I've been playing less than a month, a friend of mine, who has a masters in music, and specialised in violins, has a very nice collection, an amati, a Dutch "ladies violin" and a bespoke handmade 5 string she has offered to teach me but she imuno-supressed so can't really pay her a visit.
She's offered Skype lessons.. So we'll give that a try soon'ish...
But I would like your ideas as well if you'd be so kind...
This is my first open string video...
I didn't think that was too bad...
However (now don't be too cruel, lol) I'm desperate to learn "lavenders blue" as my 4 month old likes to hear it sung to her...
I know I need to work on timing and rhythm...
Any other tips to work on, I'm still learning to sight read and note locations between sheet and fingerboard.
I know it's nowhere near good, but I think I've not done too bad for 3 weeks without a teacher...
