Does anyone here play or has played the violin?
I've been thinking about learning violin and would like some beginners advice from a violinist (or someone who knows at least anything about violins).

If you have a guitar or piano, try testing your finger co-ordination on that. The first year of learning violin is pretty grueling because you can never tell how well you are adapting due to your bowing and finger technique having to improve before you can focus on playing more complicated stuff. If you can do complex things on guitar or piano (ie. harder chords and jumps) then you'll have passed the first step to learning a bow instrument.

Violin is an instrument that takes dedication and if you are looking for a casual instrument, i don't recommend it. If you have the dedication to put in years of work and practice an unhealthy amount, go for it, you'll love it.

E: Also you'll do well to practice sight-reading music a lot. And by a lot, i mean A LOT.

Thanks for that Haru. Gives me a lot to consider.

Tigro · Post by **Tigro** » 16 Apr 2012, 07:38

i hate when moved from piano to guitar. On piano hign tones are right (or up) and on guitar high tones are down. whatta heck? still playing teh piano. Violin seems bit hard and expensive just for trying...

Lousku · Post by **Lousku** » 16 Apr 2012, 14:38

Now I want to see how the fak your piano is positioned. And guitar, for that matter.

Tigro · Post by **Tigro** » 16 Apr 2012, 14:51

dont hav my own guitar, it was borrowed. and piano roxx in my livingroom

Try playing the guitar with strings reversed, if that helps you.

axually my problem is, that i am left-handed and noone has lefthand guitar. that makes me dizzy. i was thinking about swapping strings, but orka.

Lousku · Post by **Lousku** » 16 Apr 2012, 17:23

That just means you have great potential to develop a coolly unique technique!

Tigro · Post by **Tigro** » 16 Apr 2012, 19:26

forget it.

teajay · Post by **teajay** » 16 Apr 2012, 20:44

Seriously, just quit whining and start playing. I have found that the only way to get around all the handicaps of the instrument is by practising more and expecting less. You can play beautifully on it, but you have to be very critical of what sound you're producing and always compare yourself to the people you think can really play. Rhythm is the key I think.

Grace · Post by **Grace** » 17 Apr 2012, 03:24

Tigro: If you aren't willing to learn a method just because it is a little uncomfortable, maybe guitar isn't for you. You do not become a good musician without really hard work and lots of pain.

Tigro · Post by **Tigro** » 17 Apr 2012, 14:52

i was tortured for 8 years when learning piano. that´s enuf. then 3 years brake, now playing again. i actually never wanted to play guitar well. it was just an experiment...

Zweq · Post by **Zweq** » 17 Apr 2012, 18:57

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iIrg4DM078 how hard is this piece supposed to be on synthesizer for absolute beginner? just wondering because i couldnt nail the fucking 2hand coordination and it drives me nuts! and im talking about without using echo

Lousku · Post by **Lousku** » 17 Apr 2012, 19:08

Very easy. I'm a drummer so I guess my word doesn't count. It's just limb independence and I'm guessing it'll come with practice.

Zweq · Post by **Zweq** » 17 Apr 2012, 19:13

very easy for beginner, comes with practice.

oookay

even this guy plays sheet music and plays the piece wrong http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klbJlmGG0_4 (the only cover on that song i found)

Zweq · Post by **Zweq** » 17 Apr 2012, 19:36

thanks for help lousku! i got it in sauna O.O should have just tried another 5 mins

FinMan · Post by **FinMan** » 17 Apr 2012, 19:44

Suffering exactly the same problem as Zweq here every time I try to play the piano, and it causes me to quit it right away. Using two hands simultaneously is super hard indeed.

ville_j · Post by **ville_j** » 17 Apr 2012, 19:53

very easy

Meant: I've never played piano or sach (more than a few minutes of obligatory mongoing here and there :)) and found the patterns very easy.

Zweq · Post by **Zweq** » 17 Apr 2012, 20:15

y it was easy after all, kind of. it was more about rhythm than anything else, had to play drums sort of

but it's 100 times harder than moonlight sonata!

FinMan · Post by **FinMan** » 17 Apr 2012, 20:57

skicka sheet music ?

Lousku · Post by **Lousku** » 11 Jul 2012, 20:51

For anyone who likes KC: holy shiet :d

ps. fracture is underrated

Zweq · Post by **Zweq** » 11 Jul 2012, 21:07

prefer fried

pawq · Post by **pawq** » 11 Jul 2012, 21:11

wow, max :DDD absolutely insane violinist :D
and Fracture underrated?! Damn, I've heard many many many many mans say it's pasibly the best KC piece, and I totally agree :D never heard anyone say that it sucks :o

damn, listened to The Power to Believe today, but you've just motivated me to play Red :D

Lousku · Post by **Lousku** » 11 Jul 2012, 21:15

I've never höörd much praise for it. Understandably since it's in the end of an obscurish livestudio pancake. Always loved teh.

Here's a live fracture I've never heard before.

pawq · Post by **pawq** » 11 Jul 2012, 21:35

fripp+bruford+wetton=best trio ever
i love studio version most anyway =) but this is max
my other fav kc tracks = starless, dangerous curves, fallen angel, lizard, the devil's triangle, epitaph, in the court of the crimson king))))))))))))

donno, feels worse for me than the early 70s and 2000s KC
just like all the music from the 80s feels way worse for me than 60->70s and 90->2000s :)
i hate 80s. imo the only artists who managed to do great music in the 80s are peter gabriel and andreas vollenweider

Definately, I don't listen to alot of music from the 80s at all, but imo I do think KC did some pretty great stuff in the 80s

The addition of Adrian Belew made them sound kinda Zappa/Talking Head-ish prototypical Primus.

pawq · Post by **pawq** » 13 Jul 2012, 16:13
