Return to the violin after 5 months off
zhlĂ©dnutĂ­ 7KPƙed 2 lety
After 1 year of learning violin, I stopped for 5 months. What's it like going back to it after so much time away? Well... This was filmed back in fall/winter of 2021. Why did I stop playing? We all have our reasons...I was too busy, it's a frustrating instrument to learn (SO MANY SQUEAKS), etc. What matters is picking it back up and continuing. Keep at it, friends. We'll get there. Someday.

    Omg what's on your violin?? I thought of inventing what I called the "bow bumpers" because my students have trouble keeping their bow straight but I didn't know they already exist

    Not a good idea of having that bow stopper because u might need to make it a bit quiet and u have to get the bow closer to the finger pad
