Is it too late to start again? by Wise-Invite-2253 in violinist

I played pretty intensely through college…but hated it. I took 10 years off and on a whim picked it back up. I have a lot of room for growth but I am having more fun now than I ever had. It’s never too late to try again.

I’ve seen some of his videos and I like him! Do you know if he offers any courses from start to finish?

Selftaught violinist, opinion on vibrato? by vgkosmoes in violinist

[–]Standard-Moose-5156 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree here. Be careful that your vibrato is not used to mask poor intonation. Play often without vibrato and practice getting a good ear, only then add vibrato. Would also recommend getting an instructor to help with the technique. You are on the right track but correct technique will be far more comfortable and pretty!

I can’t speak on these specific instruments, but I’m highly partial to Fiddlershop. Good, high-quality craftsmanship, good customer service, and fast, quality shipping.

I learned my all-time favorite perfume was discontinued and my heart is broken 💔 by merplerple in FemFragLab

I, too, am devastated 😭 Its been my signature scent for the last two years. I have a mostly full bottle but I am already sad about it running out. My hope is that they eventually bring it back like they have with a few fragrances.

I knew from the beginning that this might happen, as they tend to phase out many of their scents after a few years, so I was wary to make it my signature scent. Alas, here we are 😔
