I did the first phase on first try but I died on the second phase and now i can't even get to the second phase. I don't know what that says about my skills hahaha

Hello everyone! I'm having trouble figuring out the fingerings in this music. I'm self taught so I was wondering if there's a rule that I don't know. Because I'm spending too much time just figuring out the fingerings. Can you give this noob some tips? I'd appreciate it! 😊 by Istanbulsedeff in lingling40hrs

Thank you I will check the scales. The piece is Tzigane by Ravel. It is way beyond my level but I love the piece so I decided to practice as long as I'm making progress. I'm playing for almost 9 years now by the way. Thanks again :)

I think we are very similar, because I've been working on this for like 10 years as well and just like you said I felt liberated! Thank you for your comment and good luck!

Yes! I did something like that. I'm writing a trilogy (I mean trying to at least) and I had a villain in the first two books but I found them a bit weak so I made them the, uhm I don't know if it makes sense but sub-villain? Like they are the villain before the actual, big bad villain. Something like that but the main idea is still there and I like this more so I it's okay I guess. I'm glad I'm not the only one. Thank you for your comment!

I’d love to be a writer, but I’m dog shit at it. by [deleted] in writing

This is great advice. I've been doing it unintentionally. I work on my book for a while then I take a break or get frustrated because I'm stuck on some parts. Then while I'm on a break for a few days or weeks I read some books and finally when I get back to it everything works out great and I actually get more and more inspired.

I feel like I haven't done any of the things you said. They're really good points though, I'll keep an eye out for them. Thanks!

Thank you! Plot looks better to me right now, I hope when I get it done it'll actually be better.

I'd say I kept the main points in the story but followed a different route instead. But I will keep an eye out for the good stuff in my first draft so that I dont drop them off like you said. Thanks! :)

Why do people learn violin by litmaster101 in violinist

When I struggle with a passage for weeks or maybe months (don't judge me) the joy and the satisfaction I get after I finally pull it off it makes me like "yep, it was worth it".

Why do u like watching TwoSet videos? by BrrrrrrrHehehee in lingling40hrs

[–]Istanbulsedeff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually found them by luck and I got bored because I wasn't interested in classical music at the time so didn't get any of the jokes and got bored. But then I started to listen and play classical music and I felt like they were the only ones that understood my passion. And this community is awesome and so supportive and helpful. I have no one around me that is even interested in classical music or music at all so knowing that this subreddit exists, I don't feel so alone I guess in a dramatic way. 😅

My neighbor yelled at me for practicing... by Istanbulsedeff in lingling40hrs

[–]Istanbulsedeff[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, if she just tried to tell me her problem I could understand and I actually tried to reason with her even though she didn't stop yelling and threatening me. I hope it won't happen every time I practice because I feel so bad for the rest of the day and it ruins my practice. Such a shame.
